Profiles from Run 7 at times tO (i.e. the moment at which the primary protostar forms), tO+ 5.9 kyr, tO+ 12.2 kyr, tO+ 16.1 kyr, tO+ 20.1 kyr, tO+ 24.0 kyr, tO+ 28.0 kyr and tO+ 31.9 kyr (the end of the simulation). (a) The radial-density profile on the equatorial plane, ρ(r, z= 0). The axes are logarithmic, and lines with slopes −1.5 and −2.0 are shown to mimic the run of density in the disc from 10 to 100 au, and from 100 to 1000 au, respectively. The key gives the line-styles used to represent the different times. (b) The radial-temperature profile on the equatorial plane, T(r, z= 0). The axes are logarithmic, and a line with slope − 0.5 is shown to mimic the run of temperature in the disc between 10 and 1000 au. (c) The radial-velocity profile on the equatorial plane, vr(r, z= 0). The velocity axis is linear, and velocity is given in units of the local sound speed. The radius axis is logarithmic. (d) The azimuthal velocity profile on the equatorial plane, vφ(r, z= 0). The axes are logarithmic, and lines with slopes of −1/2 and −1/4 are included to show that in the disc vφ∝r−1/4, corresponding to non-Keplerian differential rotation. (e) The radial profile of the disc aspect ratio, . The axes are linear.
