What Does TTS Stand For?

TTS stands for T Tauri Star

T Tauri Star (TTS) refers to a young, pre-main sequence star that is in the early stages of stellar evolution. These stars are typically found in star-forming regions and are characterized by their variable brightness and strong stellar winds. T Tauri stars play a crucial role in understanding the formation and development of stars, as they are often surrounded by circumstellar disks that may eventually form planets. Their study provides insights into the processes that govern both stellar and planetary system formation.
