Star Formation and Magnetohydrodynamics: in the beginning,
there were clouds of molecules and dust....... and there appeared jets,
shocks, turbulence, disks and protostars........... from which emerged
stars and planets. How? First, we can sketch the
known
and suspected stages in the star formation process. You may of course
add your own. From this, you can see what parts of the puzzle the following
projects are trying to complete.
