On the forms of accretion of interstellar gas and dust during the formation of single stars and their planetary systems

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, the mechanisms of star formation and the formation of the equatorial gas and dust disk of protostars are considered. The viscous dynamics of the interstellar matter of gas and dust disks is mainly determined by perturbations of the matter density during gas accretion onto the equilibrium core of the protostar. Using the model of pulsating perturbations of the density of the gas-dust envelope of the protostar and the Navier-Stokes equations, the formulas for the dynamic viscosity of Keplerian and almost Keplerian disks are obtained. It is shown that in the regime of unstable equilibrium of the envelope, accretion of gas onto the core of the protostar begins. In the regime of stable equilibrium, the fragmentation of the gas-dust envelope and the equatorial disk of the protostar occurs. In the ring-shaped fragments of the disk, the process of formation of “embryos” of planets begins and accretion on the “embryos” of the planet also begins.
