Have a look in /etc/mime.types, which is maintained centrally.  The
current testing version includes the following entries:

application/java-archive                        jar
application/java-serialized-object              ser
application/java-vm                             class
application/x-java-applet
application/x-java-bean
application/x-java-jnlp-file                    jnlp
application/x-javascript                        js
text/x-java                                     java

My /usr/lib/mime/packages/sun-j2re1.5 contains the line:

application/x-java-jnlp-file; /usr/lib/j2re1.5-sun/bin/javaws %s

More I can't tell you, I'm afraid.
