Modeling Far-Infrared Observations of Young Stellar Objects

  • Conference paper
Circumstellar Matter 1994

Abstract

We discuss high-resolution, far-infrared spatial observations of low mass embedded young stellar objects in the Taurus molecular complex. By comparing the observed spatial extent with the results of radiative transport models, we can estimate the density distribution of the envelopes. We compare the initial results for 4 objects (L1551-IRS 5, L1489-IR, L1551-NE, and L1527-IR) with star formation theories.
