Scientific paper

We aim to monitor T Tauri star disk emission features and jet outflow morphologies to determine how these features vary with disk accretion rate, and how and when the outflow responds to major accretion events. Young stars are surrounded by circumstellar disks through which they accrete mass. Magneto-centrifugal disk winds remove angular momentum from the inner region and so allow accretion to proceed. These winds are magnetically collimated to form stellar jets. We will determine a) how the disk chromosphere spectrum changes with accretion rate, b) whether new clumps ejected in the outflow result from major accretion events, and c) how jet clumps evolve as they move along the jet channel.
