Accretion, fluorescent X-ray emission and flaring magnetic structures in YSOs

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

I present some recent developments on high-energy phenomena in YSOs, concentrating on the new evidence for accretion-induced X-ray emission in YSOs, for Fe 6.4 keV fluorescent emission from the disks of YSOs and for very long magnetic structures responsible for intense X-ray flares, likely connecting the star and the circumstellar disk.
