Physics

Scientific paper

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations are presented for the long-term evolution of a stellar dipolar field connected to the surrounding accretion disk. As a main result, the initial large-scale dipole is destroyed and a two-component outflow evolves -- a stellar wind and a disk wind. This outflow is uncollimated and reaches velocities of about the Keplerian speed at its foot point.
