In the last few years great improvements in the study of stellar
jets and bipolar outflows have been achieved, both observationally
and theoretically. High resolution observations at various
frequencies (radio, IR, optical and X-ray) of these features in
different types of objects have shown a large variety of
morphologies at all scales often revealing contrasting symmetries
which do not allow straightforward kinematic interpretations valid
for all cases. In particular, at present, it seems very difficult
to give a statistical definition of what the "standard properties"
of jets and bipolar outflows are. On the theoretical side, the
identification of physical processes capable of producing the
observed rich morphological variety of jets and bipolar outflows
and supporting them over long lifetimes is still controversial.
Furthermore several models are actively discussed in an attempt of
reaching a complete understanding of the phenomenon. The workshop
provided an unique opportunity for both observers and theoreticians
to gather together and produce an updated and exhaustive picture of
the field. In addition the meeting has been enriched by the
presentation of some works on jets in external galaxies. This topic
was focused on what people working on stellar jets could learn from
colleagues working on extragalactic jets and vice versa. Invited
papers were prepared with the aim of giving the state of the art
about scientific subjects; contributed papers and some selected
poster papers presented, on the contrary, very recent results in
the various fields.
