Protostellar Disks

Protostellar Disks is a rotating circumstellar disk of gas and dust gravitationally bound to a forming protostar, through which mass is transported inward toward the central object while angular momentum is redistributed outward, enabling accretion and stellar growth during the early stages of star formation.
