Abstract

We present some results of time series spectroscopy of the Classical T Tauri star DR Tau. Profile variability at H delta indicates the rotation of magnetically-rigid accretion streams, and seems to be associated with a 1.5 day period. Time-lagged correlations in several emission lines are interpreted as the signatures of an accretion shock passing over the limb of the star.
