Accretion onto Pre-Main-Sequence Stars

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2016
Accretion through circumstellar disks plays an important role in star formation and in establishing the properties of the regions in which planets form and migrate. The mechanisms by which protostellar and protoplanetary disks accrete onto low-mass stars are not clear; angular momentum transport by magnetic fields is thought to be involved, but the ...

The potential of space observations for pulsating pre-main sequence stars [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
The first asteroseismic studies of pre-main sequence (pre-MS) pulsators have been conducted based on data from the space telescopes MOST and CoRoT with typical time bases of less than 40 days.

Keplerobservations of A–F pre-main-sequence stars in Upper Scorpius: discovery of six new δ Scuti and one γ Doradus stars [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2015
We present light curves and periodograms for 27 stars in the young Upper Scorpius association (age=$11 \pm 1$\,Myr) obtained with the Kepler spacecraft. This association is only the second stellar grouping to host several pulsating pre-main sequence (PMS)

Variations in the Magnetic Field Strength of Pre-main-sequence Stars, Solar-type Main-sequence Stars, and the Sun

open access: goldThe Astrophysical Journal
The surface magnetic fields of pre-main-sequence stars and zero-age main-sequence stars are notably strong, resulting in the generation of numerous spots and the emission of bright chromospheric lines.

The gas temperature in flaring disks around pre-main sequence stars [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2004
A model is presented which calculates the gas temperature and chemistry in the surface layers of flaring circumstellar disks using a code developed for photon-dominated regions. Special attention is given to the influence of dust settling.

THE HABITABLE ZONES OF PRE-MAIN-SEQUENCE STARS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
We calculate the pre-main-sequence habitable zone (HZ) for stars of spectral classes F–M. The spatial distribution of liquid water and its change during the pre-main-sequence phase of protoplanetary systems is important for understanding how planets ...

Solar-like Oscillations in Accreting Pre-main-sequence Stars: Insights and Prospects [PDF]

open access: greenThe Astrophysical Journal
We present theoretical predictions for solar-like oscillators in the pre-main-sequence (pre-MS) phase of stellar evolution. Our pre-MS models start from a stellar seed of 0.01 solar masses that gains mass through accretion, offering an alternative ...

The Gaia-ESO Survey: lithium depletion in the Gamma Velorum cluster and inflated radii in low-mass pre-main-sequence stars [PDF]

open access: greenMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016
RDJ and RJJ acknowledge support from the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). Based on data products from observations made with European Southern Observatory (ESO) Telescopes at the La Silla Paranal Observatory under programme ID 188.B ...

Hipparcos observations of pre-main-sequence stars

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1997
We present first results of Hipparcos observations of nearby low-mass pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars (T Tauri and Herbig Ae/Be stars). The data obtained by Hipparcos allow us to derive weighted mean parallaxes for three major nearby star-forming regions (SFRs), Lupus, Chamaeleon I and Taurus–Auriga.
