Measuring the Density Structure of an Accretion Hot Spot

By C. Espaillat and others
Magnetospheric accretion models predict that matter from protoplanetary disks accretes onto the star via funnel flows which follow the stellar field lines and shock on the stellar surface leaving a hot spot with a density gradient. Previous work has inferred different densities in the hot spot, but has not been... Show more
