By using two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) code, the following non-steady MHD jets and outflows are studied in relation to jets ejected from central regions of galaxies: (1) a jet driven by gas pressure gradient, collimated by vertical magnetic fields (as a model of bipolar flows ejected from a hot bubble created by starbursts); (2) a magnetic twist jet which is accelerated and collimated by J × B force in relaxing magnetic twists generated by the interaction of poloidal fields with a rotating disk (as a model of jets from active galactic nuclei); (3) a magnetic-loop-outflow resulting from the Parker instability, which may account for the initial acceleration of the magnetic twist jet and nonthermal emissions near nuclear accretion disks.
