Hubble Tarantula Treasury Project - VI. Identification of pre-main-sequence stars using machine-learning techniques [PDF]
The Hubble Tarantula Treasury Project (HTTP) has provided an unprecedented photometric coverage of the entire star-burst region of 30 Doradus down to the half Solar mass limit.

Revisiting the pre-main-sequence evolution of stars [PDF]
Aims. We want to investigate how planet formation is imprinted on stellar surface composition using up-to-date stellar evolution models. Methods. We simulate the evolution of pre-main-sequence stars as a function of the efficiency of heat injection ...

An HST Study of the Substellar Population of NGC 2024
We performed an HST/WFC3-IR imaging survey of the young stellar cluster NGC 2024 in three filters probing the 1.4 μ m H _2 O absorption feature, characteristic of the population of low-mass and substellar-mass objects down to a few Jupiter masses.

Accretion onto Pre-Main-Sequence Stars
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

Nonradial Oscillations on a Pre–Main‐Sequence Star [PDF]
We show that the modes observed on the pulsating pre-main-sequence (PMS) star NGC 6383 170 can be interpreted as a combination of radial and nonradial p-modes. Using a dense grid of PMS models and oscillation spectra, we have identified models that match the observed oscillation spectrum within 1 σ of the frequency uncertainties and are consistent with

Instability strip for pre-main-sequence stars [PDF]
We apply the Time Dependent Convection (TDC) treatment presented in Grigahcene et al. (2005) to the study of Pre-main sequence pulsating stars. The stabilization of the p-modes at the red edge of the Instability Strip (IS) is obtained by our models. The theoretical IS obtained with Mixing Length (ML) parameter α =1.8 is compared to observations and a ...

Magnetic fields and differential rotation on the pre-main sequence [PDF]
Maps of magnetic field topologies of rapidly rotating stars obtained over the last decade or so have provided unique insight into the operation of stellar dynamos. However, for solar-type stars many of the targets imaged to date have been lower-mass zero-

Magnetic Activity–Rotation–Age–Mass Relations in Late-pre-main-sequence Stars
We study the four-dimensional relationships between magnetic activity, rotation, mass, and age for solar-type stars in the age range 5–25 Myr. This is the late-pre-main-sequence (l-PMS) evolutionary phase when rapid changes in a star's interior may lead ...

A CONSTRAINT ON THE FORMATION TIMESCALE OF THE YOUNG OPEN CLUSTER NGC 2264: LITHIUM ABUNDANCE OF PRE-MAIN SEQUENCE STARS [PDF]
The timescale of cluster formation is an essential parameter in order to understand the formation process of star clusters. Pre-main sequence (PMS) stars in nearby young open clusters reveal a large spread in brightness.
