BELTRAN SOROLLA, MARIA TERESAMARIA TERESABELTRAN SOROLLA0000-0003-3315-56262022-02-282022-02-282020http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12386/31500Accretion disks are one of the key ingredients of the star formation process. They redistribute angular momentum and, in the case of high-mass stars (M > 8Msun), disks would relieve the radiation pressure on the accreting material, in particular in the equatorial direction, by beaming the radiation through the poles of the system and this would allow the accretion to proceed onto the central protostar (e.g., Tan et al. 2014 for a review on massive star formation). In fact, in recent years, all high-mass star-forming theories appear to converge to a disk-mediated accretion scenario (e.g., Krumholz et al. 2007; Kuiper et al. 2011; Bonnell & Bate 2006; Keto 2007) but do the observations of high-mass young stellar objects (YSOs) confirm the theory predictions? Or in other words, do true accretion disks around massive stars really exist?enMagazine articlehttps://www.starformation.news/2020arXiv200506912BFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
