Abstract
In its last stages, star formation in molecular clouds includes the onset of a stellar wind that helps to clear away the surrounding placenta of gas and dust, thereby making the young stellar object optically visible. We discuss new observational evidence that the emerging wind is largely neutral and atomic in low-mass protostars. We then suggest a simple theoretical mechanism for the generation of such powerful neutral winds.
This paper also forms part of a contribution published by the same authors in NATO/ASI Formation and Evolution of Low-Mass Stars, eds. A. Dupree and T. Lago (Dordrecht: Reidel), 1988, in press.
