We discuss four different tests of the bow-shock theory of Herbig-Haro objects, emphasizing especially tests based on position-velocity diagrams and on the appearance of “double layer” structures in the spatial maxima of the high- and low-velocity components of the emission lines. Though this latter effect is surprising, it is a fundamental consequence of the bow shock theory.
