Since Protostars and Planets VI (PPVI), our knowledge of the global properties of
protoplanetary and debris disks, as well as of young stars, has dramatically improved. At the …

The discovery of large numbers of young low-mass stars and brown dwarfs over the past
decade has made it possible to investigate star formation and early evolution in a previously …

Context. The multiplicity fraction of stars, down to the substellar regime, is a parameter of
fundamental importance for stellar formation, evolution, and planetology. The census of …

This is the first of a series of papers presenting the Modules for Experiments in Stellar
Astrophysics (MESA) Isochrones and Stellar Tracks (MIST) project, a new comprehensive …

The Binary Population and Spectral Synthesis suite of binary stellar evolution models and
synthetic stellar populations provides a framework for the physically motivated analysis of …

Context. The census of stellar and substellar companions of nearby stars is largely
incomplete, in particular toward the low-mass brown dwarf and long-period exoplanets. It is …

The K2 mission will make use of the Kepler spacecraft and its assets to expand upon
Kepler's groundbreaking discoveries in the fields of exoplanets and astrophysics through …

We present an analysis of the intrinsic colors and temperatures of 5–30 Myr old pre-main-
sequence (pre-MS) stars using the F0-through M9-type members of nearby, negligibly …

The disk mass is among the most important input parameter for every planet formation
model to determine the number and masses of the planets that can form. We present an …

Abstract The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is finding transiting planet
candidates around bright, nearby stars across the entire sky. The large field of view …
