We carried out axisymmetric simulations of disk accretion to a rapidly rotating magnetized star in the "propeller" regime. Simulations show that propellers may be "weak" (with no outflows), and "strong" (with outflows). Investigation of the…

In star formation, magnetic fields act as a cosmic angular momentum extractor that increases mass accretion rates onto protostars and in the process, creates spectacular outflows. However, recently it has been argued that this magnetic…
