Scientific paper

The available database on T Tauri stars is examined in order to develop criteria for modeling the physical processes occurring within and around pre-main sequence stars. Observational data on the temperature structures, mass loss rates, and mass motions in T Tauri envelopes are reviewed to form a basis for discussing the possible mechanisms for mass loss in the T Tauri objects. Analytical models are explored for thermally-driven, wave-driven and rotationally-driven winds. The possible interactions of the T Tauri stellar winds with processes occurring in the nearby FU Dri stars are noted, as is the necessity of momdeling physical processes such as turbulent velocity fields through accurate radiative transfer calculations in order to model the envelopes of the T Tauri stars.
