Gravitational instabilities in a protosolar-like disc

This thesis presents a study of protoplanetary discs around young, low mass protostars. Such discs are believed to be massive enough to develop gravitational instabilities, which subsequently form spiral structures. The dynamical and chemical evolutions of a protosolar-like, gravitationally unstable...
