XMM observations of sigma Ori cluster
We present the results of an XMM-Newton observation of the young (~2-4Myr) cluster around the hot star sigma Orionis. In a previous paper (Sanz-Forcada et al.,... -
X-ray emission of T Tau stars in Lupus 3
I present analysis results of an XMM-Newton observation of the Lupus 3 region that contains a high proportion of young low mass T Tauri stars in the Lupus star-forming complex.... -
ACIS-I observations of NGC 2264
This paper's goal is to improve the member census of the NGC 2264 star-forming region and study the origin of X-ray activity in young PMS stars. We analyze a deep, 100ks long,... -
Binary stars in the Orion Nebula Cluster
We report on a high-spatial-resolution survey for binary stars in the periphery of the Orion Nebula Cluster, at 5-15arcmin (0.65-2pc) from the cluster center. We observed 228... -
XMM-Newton survey of two Upper Scorpius regions
We studied X-ray emission from young stars by analyzing the deep XMM-Newton observations of two regions of the Upper Scorpius association with an age of 5Myr. Based on near... -
Variability of classical T Tauri
We report the results of a study the long term variability of Classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) over up to 20 years, characterize it from a set of statistical parameters and... -
XMM observations of Cha I dark cloud
Low-mass stars are known to exhibit strong X-ray emission during the early stages of evolution. Nearby star forming regions are ideal targets to study the X-ray properties of... -
VLT/Flames spectroscopic data of NGC 6530
Mechanisms regulating the evolution of pre-main sequence stars can be understood by studying stellar properties such as rotation, disk accretion, internal mixing and binarity.... -
B and V light curves of AA Tau
From a long time series of high resolution (R=115,000) HARPS spectra and simultaneous broad-band photometry, we report new evidence for magnetospheric accretion as well as... -
Chandra obs. of Serpens star-forming region
To study the properties of X-ray emission from young stellar objects (YSOs) through their evolution from Class I to Class III and determine whether Class 0 protostars emit... -
Chandra and near-IR obs. of Cyg OB2
The aim of this work is to identify the so far unknown low mass stellar population of the ~2Myr old Cygnus OB2 star forming region, and to investigate the X-ray and near-IR... -
PMS stars in open clusters: the DAY-I Catalogue
We present the basic ideas and first results from the project we are carrying out at present, the search for and characterisation of pre-main sequence (PMS) stars among the... -
XMM-Newton Extended Survey of Taurus
The XMM-Newton Extended Survey of the Taurus Molecular Cloud (XEST) surveys the most populated ~5 square degrees of the Taurus Molecular Cloud, using the XMM-Newton X-ray... -
VRIJK photometry of GQ Lup
We wanted to determine the rotation parameters of GQ Lup A, thereby constraining the evolutionary history of the GQ Lup system. We have undertaken a photometric monitoring... -
WFI optical photometry in Cha II dark cloud
We present the results of an optical multi-band survey for low-mass pre-main sequence (PMS) stars and young brown dwarfs (BDs) in the Chamaeleon II (Cha II) dark cloud. This... -
IR photometry around IRAS 16571-4029
We present the results of a near-infrared survey of the young stellar cluster associated with the IRAS 16571-4029 source. The main purpose of this survey is to study the cluster... -
X-ray flares from Cygnus OB2 young stars
We characterize individual and ensemble properties of X-ray flares from stars in the Cygnus OB2 and ONC star-forming regions. We analyzed X-ray light-curves of 1003 Cygnus OB2... -
13CO observations of YSOs in South Gal. plane
The Red MSX Source (RMS) survey is an ongoing multi-wavelength observational programme designed to return a large, well-selected sample of massive young stellar objects (MYSOs).... -
RMS survey of southern candidate massive YSOs
The Red MSX Source (RMS) survey is an ongoing effort to return a large, well-selected sample of massive young stellar objects (MYSOs) within our Galaxy. 2000 candidates have... -
X-ray properties of young stellar objects
To study the X-ray properties of young stellar objects (YSOs), we analyze an exceptionally sensitive Chandra dataset of the Coronet cluster in the CrA star-forming region,...
