  This review focuses on the X-ray emission processes of extra-galactic jets on
scales resolvable by the sub arcsec resolution of the Chandra X-ray
Observatory. It is divided into 4 parts. The introductory chapter reviews the
classical problems for jets, as well as those associated directly with the
X-ray emission. Throughout this section, we deal with the dualisms of low
powered radio sources versus high powered radio galaxies and quasars;
synchrotron models versus inverse Compton models; and the distinction between
the relativistic plasma responsible for the received radiation and the medium
responsible for the transport of energy down the jet. The second part collects
the observational and inferred parameters for the currently detected X-ray jets
and attempts to put their relative sizes and luminosities in perspective. In
part 3, we first give the relevant radio and optical jet characteristics, and
then examine the details of the X-ray data and how they can be related to
various jet attributes. The last section is devoted to a critique of the two
non-thermal emission processes and to prospects for progress in our
understanding of jets.
