Probing the Formation Mystery of Sunlike Stars

 Chin-Fei Lee
(Assistant Research Fellow,
Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics)

It is now known that stars are formed inside clouds of gas and dust by means of gravitational collapse. Dense condensations called protostars will first form in the beginning and then grow into stars as gas and dust continue to fall onto them. The details of the process, however, are complicated by the presence of magnetic field and angular momentum. In particular, gas and dust are also found to be ejected from around the protostars, forming supersonic protostellar jets interacting with the surrounding material.
