High energy emission from young stars with disks, with all their components due to accretion and outflow activity, can have a deep impact on the evolution of their disks and on the formation of exo-planetary systems. An inter-disciplinary approach, which combines multi-wavelength observations, magnetohydrodynamical models, and laboratory experiments, allows us to get a more complete description of the accretion/ejection phenomena characterizing young stars. We discuss the case of the HH 154 jet, its X-ray emission localized at the base of the jet and its complex morphology, comparing observations, models, and laser experiments. We present the comparison between magnetohydrodynamical models prediction and high energy observations (UV and X-ray bands) of TW Hya, a promising object to perform also Doppler shift measurements, pushing to the limit the capabilities of currently available instruments (e.g. Chandra Telescope). We discuss how future missions as Athena will improve our understanding the accretion process in young stars.
