Tests of the episodic mass accretion model for low-mass star formation

A wide range of observed luminosities of young forming stars conflicts with predictions of the standard star formation model, which features a constant accretion rate. To resolve this discrepancy, an episodic accretion model has been suggested. The focus of this dissertation is to test this model i...
