A 1.3 mm SMA Survey of 29 Variable Young Stellar Objects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Young stellar objects (YSOs) may undergo periods of active accretion (outbursts), during which the protostellar accretion rate is temporarily enhanced by a few orders of magnitude.

A rich population of free-floating planets in the Upper Scorpius young stellar association [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2021
The nature and origin of free-floating planets (FFPs) are still largely unconstrained because of a lack of large homogeneous samples to enable a statistical analysis of their properties.

300: An ACA 870 μm Continuum Survey of Orion Protostars and Their Evolution

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an 870 μ m continuum survey of 300 protostars from the Herschel Orion Protostar Survey using the Atacama Compact Array (ACA). These data measure protostellar flux densities on envelope scales ≤8000 au (20″) and resolve the structure of ...

SPITZER OBSERVATIONS OF LONG-TERM INFRARED VARIABILITY AMONG YOUNG STELLAR OBJECTS IN CHAMAELEON I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Infrared variability is common among young stellar objects, with surveys finding daily to weekly fluctuations of a few tenths of a magnitude. Space-based observations can produce highly sampled infrared light curves, but are often limited to total ...

An APEX Study of Molecular Outflows in FUor-type Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The FU Orionis–type objects (FUors) are low-mass pre-main-sequence objects that go through a short-lived phase (∼100 yr) of increased mass accretion rate (from 10 ^−8 to 10 ^−4 M _⊙ yr ^−1 ).

THE SPITZER SPACE TELESCOPE SURVEY OF THE ORION A AND B MOLECULAR CLOUDS. II. THE SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION AND DEMOGRAPHICS OF DUSTY YOUNG STELLAR OBJECTS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We analyze the spatial distribution of dusty young stellar objects (YSOs) identified in the Spitzer Survey of the Orion Molecular clouds, augmenting these data with Chandra X-ray observations to correct for incompleteness in dense clustered regions.

Magnetospheric outflows in young stellar objects

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2014
Different classes of outflows are associated with the magnetospheric activity of accreting T Tauri protostars. Stellar winds are accelerated along the open field lines anchored in the stellar surface; disk winds (extended or X-type) can be launched along

Distances to Nearby Molecular Clouds Traced by Young Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
I present a catalog of distances to 63 molecular clouds located within ∼2.5 kpc of the Sun. The cloud distances are derived based on utilizing the Gaia DR3 parallaxes of the young stellar objects (YSOs). By identifying AllWISE YSO candidates (YSOCs) with

YOUNG STELLAR CLUSTERS CONTAINING MASSIVE YOUNG STELLAR OBJECTS IN THE VVV SURVEY [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The purpose of this research is to study the connections of the global properties of eight young stellar clusters projected in the Vista Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) ESO Large Public Survey disk area and their young stellar object (YSO) populations.

Measurement of the Angular Momenta of Pre-main-sequence Stars: Early Evolution of Slow and Fast Rotators and Empirical Constraints on Spin-down Torque Mechanisms

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
We use TESS full-frame imaging data to investigate the angular momentum evolution of young stars in the Orion Complex. We confirm recent findings that stars with rotation periods faster than 2 days are overwhelmingly binaries, with typical separations of
