内容記述 | Winds from low-mass optically visible T Tauri stars are investigated. It is shown that the presence of energetic T Tauri winds is coupled with the presence of solar-system-sized circumstellar disks which are optically thick in their inner regions. It is likely that these disks are in a state of mass accretion, and the source for the T Tauri winds probably derives from the innermost region of the accretion disk. It is suggested that energetic T Tauri winds are unlikely to be the primary agents in the final clearing of gas and other debris in forming planetary systems, as the cessation of energetic winds apparently coincides with the cessation of inner disk accretion. It is argued that energetic winds from both embedded IR sources and T Tauri stars share a common origin. |
