The APOGEE-2 survey of the orion star-forming complex. II. Six-dimensional structure

M Kounkel, K Covey, G Suárez… - The Astronomical …, 2018 - iopscience.iop.org
We present an analysis of spectroscopic and astrometric data from APOGEE-2 and Gaia
DR2 to identify structures toward the Orion Complex. By applying a hierarchical clustering …

An ALMA survey of protoplanetary disks in the σ Orionis cluster

M Ansdell, JP Williams, CF Manara… - The Astronomical …, 2017 - iopscience.iop.org
The σ Orionis cluster is important for studying protoplanetary disk evolution, as its
intermediate age (∼ 3–5 Myr) is comparable to the median disk lifetime. We use ALMA to …

Protoplanetary disk lifetimes vs. stellar mass and possible implications for giant planet populations

Á Ribas, H Bouy, B Merín - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2015 - aanda.org
Aims. We study the dependence of protoplanetary disk evolution on stellar mass using a

Pre-main-sequence isochrones–II. Revising star and planet formation time-scales

CPM Bell, T Naylor, NJ Mayne… - Monthly Notices of …, 2013 - academic.oup.com
We have derived ages for 13 young (< 30 Myr) star-forming regions and find that they are up
to a factor of 2 older than the ages typically adopted in the literature. This result has wide …

Close companions around young stars

M Kounkel, K Covey, M Moe, KM Kratter… - The Astronomical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Multiplicity is a fundamental property that is set early during stellar lifetimes, and it is a
stringent probe of the physics of star formation. The distribution of close companions around …

Disk evolution in the solar neighborhood-I. Disk frequencies from 1 to 100 Myr

Á Ribas, B Merín, H Bouy, LT Maud - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2014 - aanda.org
Aims. We study the evolution of circumstellar disks in 22 young (1 to 100 Myr) nearby (within
500 pc) associations over the entire mass spectrum using photometry covering from the …

Star and protoplanetary disk properties in Orion's suburbs

M Fang, R Van Boekel, W Wang, A Carmona… - Astronomy & …, 2009 - aanda.org
Context. Knowledge of the evolution of circumstellar accretion disks is pivotal to our
understanding of star and planet formation; and yet despite intensive theoretical and …

Effect of episodic accretion on the structure and the lithium depletion of low-mass stars and planet-hosting stars

I Baraffe, G Chabrier - Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2010 - aanda.org
Following up our recent analysis devoted to the impact of non steady accretion on the
location of young low-mass stars or brown dwarfs in the Herzsprung-Russell diagram, we …

X-shooter spectroscopy of young stellar objects-II. Impact of chromospheric emission on accretion rate estimates

CF Manara, L Testi, E Rigliaco, JM Alcalá… - Astronomy & …, 2013 - aanda.org
