[mmaimcal] Theory

[Debra Shepherd]

Yes, predictions about how gas lifts off of the surface of the disk 
and what the physical conditions of that gas might be - we need to 
know what tracers ALMA can use are likely to probe this effect and how 
those tracers are likely to evolve as the protostar heats up or for 
higher luminosity protostars.
