[Astronomy seminar] Weekly astro seminar: ONLY THIS WEEK on Tuesday at 10:30 in FC61

[Astronomy seminar announcements]

Dear all,
to ensure everyone has the chance to attend the seminar, we have schedule this week seminar for tomorrow at 10:30 in FC61.
The speaker of this week is Raquel Albuquerqe, from the University of Porto and Observatory of Paris.
She will speak about: Simulating accretion and outflow regions in YSOs.

Abstract:
One of the puzzling questions surrounding Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) concerns the unexpected evolution of their angular momentum. Theoretically, we should expect Classical T Tauri stars (CTTs) to rotate faster due to ongoing accretion and contraction processes towards the main-sequence. Apparently, that it is not observed. Many authors suggest that the interaction star-disk has an important role towards the deceleration of these objects. Additionally, this interaction includes not only accretion, but also outflow mechanisms.
In this presentation the dynamics of accretion and outflow regions will be characterized through observations of CTTs and numerical simulations performed with PLUTO code. This study results from a collaboration between Instituto de Astrofísica e Ciências do Espaço and Observatoire de Paris.

Our seminar agends is available both on the albanova webpage https://www.albanova.se/events/seminars/ and on our department webpage https://www.astro.su.se ("upcoming events”/“kommande händelser”)

Kind regards,
Angela & Jorrit
