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.

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.

Simulations of Accretion Powered Supernovae in the Progenitors of Gamma Ray Bursts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Observational evidence suggests a link between long duration gamma ray bursts (LGRBs) and Type Ic supernovae. Here, we propose a potential mechanism for Type Ic supernovae in LGRB progenitors powered solely by accretion energy.

Spectral variability of classical T Tauri stars accreting in an unstable regime [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs) are variable in different time-scales. One type of variability is possibly connected with the accretion of matter through the Rayleigh-Taylor instability that occurs at the interface between an accretion disc and a stellar

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 ...

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).

Characterising the magnetospheric accretion process of DF Tauri’s primary

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. The accretion process in young stellar objects (YSOs) is fundamental to the formation of stellar systems. This process governs the star’s mass assembly, the transfer of angular momentum, and the shaping of the protoplanetary disc, thereby ...

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.
