We present 3D-MHD AMR simulations of Poynting flux dominated (PFD) jets formed by injection of magnetic energy. We compare their evolution with a hydrodynamic jet which is formed by injecting kinetic energy with the same energy flux than the PFD jets
. We predict characteristic emission distributions for each of these jets. Current-driven perturbations in PFD jets are amplified by both cooling and rotation for the regimes studied: Shocks and thermal pressure support are weakened by cooling, making the jets more susceptible to kinking. Rotation amplifies the toroidal magnetic field which also exacerbates the kink instability.
