The protostellar disk that surrounds developing stars are constantly penetrated by magnetic flux, and if too much magnetic flux remained, ...

According to the authors, the headwind in a protostellar disk is powerful enough to loft cm and smaller-sized particles off of planetesimals. This can happen on a planetesimal with a 10 km ...

The baby star at the center is surrounded by a bright disk called a protostellar disk. Spikes of magnetic flux, gas, and dust in blue. Researchers found that the protostellar disk will expel ...

These 'sneezes' release the magnetic flux within the protostellar disc. Astronomers have discovered a new phenomenon in baby stars: powerful expulsions of gas, dust, and magnetic energy, nicknamed ...

Large dust grains in the protostellar outflow cavity walls of the Class I binary L1551 IRS5, Astronomy & Astrophysics (2025). DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/202554750 Provided by National Radio Astronomy ...

New observations have revealed a spiral pattern in a disk of material around a still forming, but already high-mass, baby star. This indicates that there is gravitational instability in the disk ...

They are flattened because they form from the compression of an already flat structure, the protostellar disc, but also because of how they rotate. No flat Earths Although these protoplanets overall ...

For example, in the Taurus cloud, SPHERE observed roughly 20 percent of the nebula’s Class II objects (those where the light from the newly born star is just emerging from the protostellar murk ...

The protostellar disk that surrounds developing stars are constantly penetrated by magnetic flux, and if too much magnetic flux remained, the ...

Our bodies can sometimes forcefully expel dust in our noses in the form of a sneeze. A similar phenomenon may be happening in baby stars. Some new observations of the protostellar disk that ...
