The FU Ori-type young stellar objects are characterized by a sudden increase in luminosity by 1$-$2 orders of magnitude, followed by slow return to the pre-outburst state on timescales of $\sim$10$-$100 yr. The outburst strongly affects the…

FU Ori-type stars are young stellar objects (YSOs) experiencing luminosity outbursts by a few orders of magnitude, which last for $\sim$$10^2$ years. A dozen of FUors are known up to date, but many more currently quiescent YSOs could have…

FU Orionis type objects (fuors) are characterized by rapid (tens to hundreds years) episodic outbursts, during which the luminosity increases by orders of magnitude. One of the possible causes of such events is a close encounter between…

Accretion-driven luminosity outbursts are a vivid manifestation of variable mass accretion onto protostars. They are known as the so-called FU Orionis phenomenon in the context of low-mass protostars. More recently, this process has been…

Luminosity bursts in young FU Orionis-type stars warm up the surrounding disks of gas and dust, thus inflicting changes on their morphological and chemical composition. In this work, we aim at studying the effects that such bursts may have…

While accreting through a circumstellar disk, young stellar objects are observed to undergo sudden and powerful accretion events known as FUor or EXor outbursts. Although such episodic accretion is considered to be an integral part of the…

The structure and chemistry of protoplanetary disks depends strongly on the nature of the central star around which it has formed. The dust temperature is mainly set by the stellar luminosity, while the chemistry of the upper disk layers…

Context: Vertically hydrostatic protoplanetary disk models are based on the assumption that the main heating source, stellar irradiation, does not vary much with time. However, it is known that accreting young stars are variable sources of…
