Embedded Clusters in Molecular Clouds

TL;DR: The first extensive catalog of galactic embedded clusters is compiled, finding that the embedded cluster birthrate exceeds that of visible open clusters by an order of magnitude or more indicating a high infant mortality rate for protocluster systems.

Theory of Star Formation

TL;DR: In this paper, an overall theoretical framework and the observations that motivate it are outlined, outlining the key dynamical processes involved in star formation, including turbulence, magnetic fields, and self-gravity.

Spectral Energy Distributions of T Tauri Stars with Passive Circumstellar Disks

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derive hydrostatic, radiative equilibrium models for passive disks surrounding T Tauri stars, where each disk is encased by an optically thin layer of superheated dust grains.

Accretion and the Evolution of T Tauri Disks

TL;DR: Gullbring et al. as discussed by the authors estimate disk accretion rates for pre-main-sequence stars in the Taurus and Chamaeleon I molecular cloud complexes using a minimum of parameters.

On the fate of gas accreting at a low rate on to a black hole

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that only a small fraction of the gas supplied actually falls on to the black hole, and that the binding energy it releases is transported radially outward by the torque so as to drive away the remainder in the form of a wind.
