Jets are ubiquitous in the Universe and are seen from a large number of astrophysical
objects including active galactic nuclei, gamma ray bursters, micro-quasars, proto-planetary …

The role of outflows in the formation of stars and the protostellar disks that generate them is
a central question in astrophysics. Outflows are associated with star formation across the …

Context. Water is a key molecule in the physics and chemistry of star and planet formation,
but it is difficult to observe from Earth. The Herschel Space Observatory provided …

Abstract We present Atacama Large Millimeter/Sub-Millimeter Array (ALMA) Band 6
observations of a complete sample of protoplanetary disks in the young (∼ 1–3 Myr) Lupus …

The evolution of protoplanetary discs and the related process of planet formation is
regulated by angular momentum transport and mass-loss processes. Over the past decade …

Context. The physical and chemical conditions in Class 0/I protostars are fundamental in
unlocking the protostellar accretion process and its impact on planet formation. Aims. The …

The gas dynamics of weakly ionized protoplanetary disks (PPDs) are largely governed by
the coupling between gas and magnetic fields, described by three non-ideal …

Magnetized winds may be important in dispersing protoplanetary disks and influencing
planet formation. We carry out global magnetohydrodynamic simulations in axisymmetry …

The central problem in forming a star is the angular momentum in the circumstellar disk,
which prevents material from falling into the central stellar core. An attractive solution to the …

We report results from global ideal MHD simulations that study thin accretion disks (with
thermal scale height H/R= 0.1 and 0.05) threaded by net vertical magnetic fields. Our …
