Scientific paper

The growth of a forming star takes place by accretion from the surrounding dense medium, facilitated by a circumstellar disk. But at the same time the forming system produces collimated outflows of gas that remove excess angular momentum and magnetic flux. In this talk, I will review recent observations, in particular from the Very Large Array and the Submillimeter Array, of young stellar objects that exhibit both disks and outflows. The outflow phenomena is strongly time variable, as indicated by the monitoring of these sources. A key question in the field is whether we can extend the disk/jet model to stars of the largest masses or if other ingredients are present. Finally, I will briefly discuss the research possibilities presented by the Atacama Large Millimeter Array in the millimeter and submillimeter wavelenghts and by the expanded versions of the centimeter interferometers VLA and MERLIN.
