Magnetically channeled accretion in T Tauri stars : a dynamical process
arXiv:astro-ph/0306553 · doi:10.1007/1-4020-2600-5_18
Abstract
We review observational evidence and open issues related to the process of magnetospheric accretion in T Tauri stars. Emphasis is put on recent numerical simulations and observational results which suggest that the interaction between the stellar magnetosphere and the inner accretion disk is a highly time dependent process on timescales ranging from hours to months.
