The problem of understanding how a newly forming solar system manages to lose angular momentum from the stage of collapsing core to the final main sequence phase is a long-standing one. This is especially pertinent regarding the evolution of the accretion disks. Both theoretical studies and recent observational surveys have questioned the paradigm of viscosity-driven disk evolution, while at the same time alternative scenarios considering the action of magnetically driven winds have gained credi
