The soft X-ray emission from high density plasma in CTTS is associated with the accretion process. It is still unclear whether this high density cool plasma is heated in the accretion shock, or if it is coronal plasma fed/modified by the…
It is now accepted that accretion onto classical T Tauri stars is controlled by the stellar magnetosphere, yet to date most accretion models have assumed that their magnetic fields are dipolar. By considering a simple steady state accretion…
We report results of VRI photometric monitoring of the T Tauri star plus disk system HH30. We find that HH30 is highly variable over timescales of a few days with Delta V~1.5 mag, Delta I~1.1 mag. Furthermore we find hints of periodicity…
Studies of magnetospheric accretion and magnetic field topology in T Tauri stars have advanced over the years, but their applications to fully convective, very-low-mass T Tauri stars remain relatively unexplored. We aim to analyze the…
Classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) accrete material from their discs through their magnetospheres. The geometry of the accretion flow strongly depends on the magnetic obliquity, i.e., the angle between the rotational and magnetic axes. We aim…

Classical T Tauri stars are surrounded by a circumstellar disk from which they are accreting material. This process is essential in the formation of Sun-like stars. Although often described with simple and static models, the accretion…
The main goal of this work is to characterize the mass accretion and ejection processes of the classical T Tauri star V354 Mon, a member of the young stellar cluster NGC 2264. In March 2008, photometric and spectroscopic observations of…
Assuming a diamagnetic interaction between a stellar-spot originated localized magnetic field and gas blobs in the accretion disk around a T- Tauri star, we show the possibility of ejection of such blobs out of the disk plane. Choosing the…
For the first time in a classical T Tauri star, we are able to trace an accretion event signaled by an hour-long enhancement of X-rays from the accretion shock and revealed through substantial sequential changes in optical emission line…
The inner 0.1 AU around accreting T Tauri stars hold clues to many physical processes that characterize the early evolution of solar-type stars. The accretion-ejection connection takes place at least in part in this compact magnetized…
