Accretion‐powered Stellar Winds. III. Spin‐Equilibrium Solutions [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2008
We compare the stellar wind torque calculated in a previous work (Paper II) to the spin-up and spin-down torques expected to arise from the magnetic interaction between a slowly rotating ($\sim 10$% of breakup) pre-main-sequence star and its accretion disk.

Unveiling extremely veiled T Tauri stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Photospheric absorption lines in classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) are weak compared to normal stars. This so-called veiling is normally identified with an excess continuous emission formed in shock-heated gas at the stellar surface below the accretion ...

Three-dimensional Simulations of Magnetospheric Accretion in a T Tauri Star: Accretion and Wind Structures Just Around the Star

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
We perform three-dimensional (3D) magnetohydrodynamic simulations of magnetospheric accretion in a T Tauri star to study the accretion and wind structures in the close vicinity of the star.

MAGNETICALLY CONTROLLED ACCRETION FLOWS ONTO YOUNG STELLAR OBJECTS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2011
(abridged) Accretion from disks onto young stars is thought to follow magnetic field lines from the inner disk edge to the stellar surface. The accretion flow thus depends on the geometry of the magnetic field. This paper extends previous work by constructing a collection of orthogonal coordinate systems, including the corresponding differential ...

Observable Signatures of Classical T Tauri Stars Accreting in an Unstable Regime

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
We discuss key observational signatures of Classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs) accreting through Rayleigh-Taylor instability, which occurs at the interface between an accretion disk and a stellar magnetosphere.

First Magnetic Field Detection on a Class I Protostar [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Strong stellar magnetic fields are believed to truncate the inner accretion disks around young stars, redirecting the accreting material to the high latitude regions of the stellar surface.

Planet population synthesis driven by pebble accretion in cluster environments

open access: yes, 2017
The evolution of protoplanetary discs embedded in stellar clusters depends on the age and the stellar density in which they are embedded. Stellar clusters of young age and high stellar surface density destroy protoplanetary discs by external ...

The Rising Star-Formation Histories of Distant Galaxies and Implications for Gas Accretion with Time [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Distant galaxies show correlations between their current star-formation rates (SFRs) and stellar masses, implying that their star-formation histories (SFHs) are highly similar.

Low-Rate Accretion onto Isolated Stellar-Mass Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2005
Magnetic field behaviour in a spherically-symmetric accretion flow for parameters typical of single black holes in the Galaxy is discussed. It is shown that in the majority of Galaxy volume, accretion onto single stellar-mass black holes will be spherical and have a low accretion rate ($10^{-6} - 10^{-9}$ of the Eddington rate).
