Connecting a Magnetized Disk to a Convective Low-mass Protostar: A Global 3D Model of Boundary Layer Accretion

In the early stages of star formation, boundary layer accretion, where protostars accrete material from disks extending down to their surfaces, plays a crucial role. Understanding how a magnetorotational-instability (MRI)-active disk connects to a protostar’s surface remains a significant challenge....
