Acceleration and ejection of interacting ring vortices by radial flow

Exact solution of two-dimensional hydrodynamic equations for symmetrical configuration of four point vortices in the presence of radial flow is found. This solution describes the dynamics of a dipole toroidal vortex (consisting of two counter-rotating vortex rings) in such a flow. It is shown that in a convergent flow the ring vortices are compressed and ejected with acceleration along the symmetry axes of the system. Possible application to the problem of jets formation in active galaxy nuclei is considered.
