THE PTF ORION PROJECT: A POSSIBLE PLANET TRANSITING A T-TAURI STAR [PDF]
We report observations of a possible young transiting planet orbiting a previously known weak-lined T-Tauri star in the 7–10 Myr old Orion-OB1a/25-Ori region. The candidate was found as part of the Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) Orion project.

On the Mass Accretion Rates of Herbig Ae/Be Stars. Magnetospheric Accretion or Boundary Layer?
Understanding how young stars gain their masses through disk-to-star accretion is of paramount importance in astrophysics. It affects our knowledge about the early stellar evolution, the disk lifetime and dissipation processes, the way the planets form ...

Doppler Probe of Accretion onto a T Tauri star [PDF]
The YY Ori stars are T Tauri stars with prominent time-variable redshifted absorption components that flank certain emission lines. One of the brightest in this class is S CrA, a visual double star. We have obtained a series of high-resolution spectra of

The multiplicity of T Tauri stars in the star forming regions Taurus-Auriga and Ophiuchus-Scorpius: A 2.2 micron speckle imaging survey [PDF]
We present the results of a magnitude limited (K < =8.5 mag) speckle imaging survey of 69 T Tauri stars in the star forming regions Taurus-Auriga and Ophiuchus-Scorpius. Thirty-three companion stars were found with separations ranging from 0."07 to 2."5;

Discovery of a bipolar X-ray jet from the T Tauri star DG Tauri [PDF]
Aims. We have obtained and analyzed Chandra ACIS-S observations of the strongly accreting classical T Tauri star DG Tau. Our principal goals are to map the immediate environment of the star to characterize possible extended X-rays formed in the jet, and ...

SPECTRAL AND PHOTOMETRIC RESEARCHES OF RY TAU
The results of analysis of the total light curve of the classic T Tauri type star RY Tau were presented. For a time at last 48 years a brightness of the star is characterized by fluctuations with amplitude about ΔV ∼1m, with characteristic time about 300

Spectroscopic Confirmation of a Population of Isolated, Intermediate-mass Young Stellar Objects
Wide-field searches for young stellar objects (YSOs) can place useful constraints on the prevalence of clustered versus distributed star formation. The Spitzer/IRAC Candidate YSO (SPICY) catalog is one of the largest compilations of such objects (∼120 ...

No Fossil Disk in the T Tauri Multiple System V773 Tau [PDF]
We present new multi-epoch near-infrared and optical high-angular images of the V773 Tau pre-main sequence triple system, a weak-line T Tauri (WTTS) system in which the presence of an evolved, ``fossil'' protoplanetary disk has been inferred on the basis

MHD Simulations of Magnetized Stars in the Propeller Regime of Accretion
Accreting magnetized stars may be in the propeller regime of disc accretion in which the angular velocity of the stellar magnetosphere exceeds that of the inner disc.
