We present a model of a hypersonic, collimated, "single pulse" outflow, produced by an event with an ejection velocity that first grows, reaches a peak, and then decreases again to zero velocity in a finite time (simultaneously, the ejection density can have an arbitrary time-variability). We obtain a flow with a leading "head" and a trailing "tail" that for times greater than the width of the pulse develops a linear, "Hubble law" velocity vs. position. We present an analytic model for a simple…
