  The dynamical effects of magnetic fields in models of radiative, Herbig-Haro
(HH) jets have been studied in a number of papers. For example, magnetized,
radiative jets from variable sources have been studied with axisymmetric and 3D
numerical simulations. In this paper, we present an analytic model describing
the effect of a toroidal magnetic field on the internal working surfaces that
result from a variability in the ejection velocity. We find that for parameters
appropriate for HH jets the forces associated with the magnetic field dominate
over the gas pressure force within the working surfaces. Depending on the ram
pressure radial cross section of the jet, the magnetic field can produce a
strong axial pinch, or, alternatively, a broadening of the internal working
surfaces. We check the validity of the analytic model with axisymmetric
numerical simulations of variable, magnetized jets.
