Time needed for the gas disk to expand to 100 au, T100 au, as a function of the infall timescale, Tinfall. The size of the disk is measured at the location where the gas surface density is 1 g cm−2. Each curve represents a different value of the initial viscosity, α0. For each value of α0, the orange star on the corresponding curve indicates the viscous timescale, Tvisc, of the disk, to be read on the horizontal axis. Tvisc represents the average viscous timescale within 10 au at t = 0 for a disk with an aspect ratio of 6%. The left panel shows T100 au, and the right panel shows T100 au scaled to Tinfall.
