Properties of the Winds of T Tauri Stars
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
The properties of Classical T Tauri (TTS) winds - their mass loss rate, temperature, origin, and energetics - are reviewed and interpreted in terms of the most recent observational evidence. TTS winds seem to have their origin in the disk and are powered by accretion. Most TTS have Ṁω ≤ 10–9Mʘ yr–1 and Ṁω/Ṁ ∼ 0.1, with T ∼ 104K.
