Leptonic jets from young stellar objects?

Abstract

Various explanations of the bipolar-flow phenomenon in star-forming regions are compared and confronted with the observed facts. It is concluded that stellar-wind interpretations are inconsistent with the constraints. The ‘exotic’ property of young stellar objects may be their extreme spin which implies strong magnetic fields and vacuum discharges above thee± pair-formation threshold (of 1012 eV). Pair-plasma jets are thought to be centrifugally driven by young stars during their first 104±1 years of rapid rotation.
