AIMS: We examine whether ejection phenomena from accreting T Tauri stars can be described by only one type of self-collimated jet model. METHODS: We present analytical kinematic predictions valid soon after the Alfv\'en surface for all…

Classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) are young (< 10 Myr), cool stars that actively accrete matter from a disk. They show strong, broad and asymmetric, atomic FUV emission lines. Neither the width, nor the line profile is understood. Likely,…

We compare evolutionary models for protoplanetary discs that include disc winds with observational determinations of the disc lifetime and accretion rate in Taurus. Using updated estimates for stellar ages in Taurus, together with published…

Classical T Tauri stars show a plethora of in- and outflow signatures in a variety of wavelengths bands. In order to constrain gas velocities and temperatures we analyse the emission in the hot ion lines. We use all available archival FUSE…

CONTEXT. Because of the presence of rotation and accretion disks, classical T Tauri stars have symmetry planes that are normally inclined relative to the plane of the sky. The inclination angles affect the observed spectral properties of…

The effects of an accretion disk are crucial to understanding the evolution of young stars. During the combined evolution, stellar and disk parameters influence each other, motivating a combined stellar and disk model. This makes a combined…

We calculate the structure of a force-free magnetosphere which is assumed to corotate with a central star and which interacts with an embedded differentially rotating accretion disc. The magnetic and rotation axes are aligned and the…

X-ray luminosities of accreting T Tauri stars are observed to be systematically lower than those of non-accretors. There is as yet no widely accepted physical explanation for this effect, though it has been suggested that accretion somehow…

We simulate the dynamics of slender magnetic flux tubes (MFTs) in the accretion disks of T Tauri stars. The dynamical equations of our model take into account the aerodynamic and turbulent drag forces, and the radiative heat exchange…

The high-energy radiation fields of T Tauri stars (TTS) should affect the surrounding circumstellar disk, having implications for disk transport and heating. Yet, observational evidence of the effect of high-energy fields on disks is…

We present the results of an analysis of ultraviolet observations of T Tauri Stars (TTS). By analysing emission measures taken from the literature we derive rates of ionizing photons from the chromospheres of 5 classical TTS in the range…

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…

T Tauri stars, in more advanced stages of evolution, during the final accretion phase of stellar formation, exhibit intense stellar winds and surface magnetic fields with intensities around a kilogauss. With the growing interest in the…

Classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs) are young stellar objects that accrete materials from their accretion disc influenced by their strong magnetic field. The magnetic pressure truncates the disc at a few stellar radii and forces the material to…

We use mid-IR (primarily 10 $\mu$m) photometry as a diagnostic for the presence of disks with inner cavities among 32 pre-main sequence stars in Orion and Taurus-Auriga for which rotation periods are known and which do not show evidence for…

The young cluster NGC 2264 was observed with the Corot satellite for 23 days uninterruptedly in March 2008 with unprecedent photometric accuracy. We present here the first results of the analysis of the accreting population. We intended to…

We employ a Monte Carlo radiation transfer code to investigate the multi- wavelength photopolarimetric variability arising from a spotted T Tauri star surrounded by a dusty circumstellar disk. Our aim is to assess the ability of the…

Detecting planets within protoplanetary disks around young stars is essential for understanding planet formation and evolution. However, planet detection using the radial velocity method faces challenges due to strong stellar activity in…

(abridged:) The Taurus Molecular Cloud (TMC) contains numerous prototypical examples of deeply embedded protostars with massive disks and outflows, classical and weak-lined T Tauri stars, jets and Herbig-Haro objects, and a growing number…

Context: Transverse loop oscillations and loop contractions are commonly associated with solar flares, but the two types of motion have traditionally been regarded as separate phenomena. Aims: We present an observation of coronal loops…
