We demonstrate that magnetically-collimated protostellar winds will sweep ambient material into thin, radiative, momentum-conserving shells whose features reproduce those commonly observed in bipolar molecular outflows. We find the typical position-velocity and mass-velocity relations to occur in outflows in a wide variety of ambient density distributions, regardless of the time histories of their driving winds.

ALMA High-resolution Observation of the HH46/47 Outflow/disk/envelope System
New ALMA data at 50 au resolution of HH46/47 shows a rotating-infalling envelope to disk transition at 30 au around a 0.3 solar-mass protostar, with outflow shells expanding radially and supporting entrainment over di...
