Abstract
During star formation, both infall of gas towards the protostar and
outflows (jets ans molecular outflows) are present around class 0 and 1
young stellar objects (YSOs). Here, we present a self-similar model
describing accretion and bipolar molecular outflows from one single set
of equations. The gas composition directly influences the solutions.
Indeed, the density in the equatorial region is inversely increasing
with metallicity. This gives rise to large accretion rates onto massive
protostars, such as primordial stars. We also show preliminary
numerical simulations of YSO jets.
