The goal was to enhance the understanding of shock dynamics by measuring the proper motions of knots within the shock structure, using cross-correlation technique. We identified a total of eight distinguishable knots. Our analysis revealed a general leftward movement in right ascension, while no clear trend was observed in declination. Notably, the most residual knots exhibited the highest velocities, pointing toward the nominal position of B1 protostellar shock, while those knots most linked to the collision remained stationary. The study highlights the need for extended observational periods to improve measurement precision5 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Martí, 2024http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Formació d'estelsTreballs de fi de grauStar formationBachelor's thesesDetermination of L1157-B1 shock’s proper-motionsinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
