Small-scale properties of low-mass Class 0 protostars: digging into the memory of accretion processes
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 16 November 2011
Abstract
In this lecture, we briefly present the main models currently proposed to describe the collapse of prestellar dense cores and the formation of young Class 0 protostars. An empirical evolutionary sequence for the formation of low-mass stars is described. Then, the typical properties of Class 0 protostars are reviewed and the question of their structure at small scales is adressed through the question of circumstellar disks.
