Imaging of HH80-81 Jet in the Near-infrared Shock Tracers H2 and [Fe ii]

The HH80-81 system is one of the most powerful jets driven by a massive protostar. We present new near-infrared (NIR) line imaging observations of the HH80-81 jet in the H _2 (2.122 μ m) and [Fe ii ] (1.644 μ m) lines. These lines trace not only the jet close to the exciting source but also the knot...
