Protostellar Rotation

Protostellar Rotation is the rotational motion of a protostar, characterized by the angular momentum-driven spinning of the collapsing molecular cloud core during early stellar formation, distinguishing it from subsequent rotational evolution phases in pre-main-sequence and main-sequence stars.
