description | During the early phases of star formation, torsional Alfven waves propagating along the locally distorted galactic magnetic
field can transport away the bulk of the initial angular momentum of a condensation, so enabling it to contract to solar nebula
dimensions. Enough primeval magnetic flux may be retained for magnetic redistribution of angular momentum to continue until
the proto-Sun reaches the pre-Main Sequence Hayashi phase. A rotating star with a convective envelope has a dynamo-maintained
field which brakes the star through coupling to the stellar wind. Observational evidence from young star clusters and from
T Tauri stars suggests that the zero-age Main Sequence Sun had about ten times its present angular momentum. The same braking
process, scaled up because of the much more powerful T Tauri winds, can explain why the zero-age Sun had lost at least nine-tenths
of the centrifugal upper limit, and is more acceptable than the suggestion that the `missing' solar angular momentum has been
magnetically fed into the planetary system. |
