Abstract
Pre-Main Sequence evolution has been revised in the light of the present improved knowledge of several physical mechanisms. A good agreement is found with previous computations. Comparison with the ‘relaxation method’ (Caloiet al., 1967) shows that such a procedure is also able to give minor characteristics of the chemical distribution in MS-structures.
