During a protostar's T Tauri phase, it: may develop very strong winds.
What happens after T Tauri phase?
It begins life as a protostar still enshrouded in its natal molecular cloud, accreting new material and developing a proto-planetary disc. Slowly, stellar winds and radiation blow away the surrounding shell of gas and dust, and the third stage, when the surrounding envelope has cleared, is called the T-Tauri phase.
What is T Tauri stage?
T Tauri stars therefore represent an intermediate stage between real protostars (e.g. YY Orionis stars) and low-mass main sequence (hydrogen burning) stars like the Sun. The nearest T Tauri stars to us are in the Taurus and ρ-Ophiuchus molecular clouds, both about 400 light years away.
