On the disruption of a protoplanetary disk nebula by a T Tauri like solar wind
Abstract
Summary. The contrasting theoretical work by Horedt and by Elmegreen on the evolution of a disk nebula that surrounds a windy star are compared. The protoplanetary nebula will not readily be blown away by a centralized stellar wind; instead it will migrate toward the star, possibly ending up on the star, as a result of wind-driven turbulence and viscosity in the disk. Key words: protoplanetary disk nebulae - T Tauri winds - protostars
