Discovery of an Accretion Burst in a Free-Floating Planetary-Mass Object
V. Almendros-Abad, A. Scholz, B. Damian +7
We report the discovery of a long-lasting burst of disk accretion in Cha J11070768-7626326 (Cha 1107-7626), a young, isolated, 5-10 M object. In spectra taken…
The most variable VVV sources: eruptive protostars, dipping giants in the Nuclear Disc and others
P. W. Lucas, L. C. Smith, Z. Guo +16
We have performed a comprehensive search of a VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) database of 9.5 yr light curves for variable sources with mag, aiming to provide…
Multi-wavelength detection of an ongoing FUOr-type outburst on a low-mass YSO
Zhen Guo, P. W. Lucas, R. G. Kurtev +13
During the pre-main-sequence evolution, Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) assemble most of their mass during the episodic accretion process. The rarely seen FUOr-type events (FUOrs) are…
Spectroscopic confirmation of high-amplitude eruptive YSOs and dipping giants from the VVV survey
Zhen Guo, P. W. Lucas, R. Kurtev +17
During the pre-main-sequence (pre-MS) evolution stage of a star, significant amounts of stellar mass are accreted during episodic accretion events, such as multi-decade FUor-type o…
Searching for Faint Comoving Companions to the Centauri system in the VVV Survey Infrared Images
J. C. Beamin, D. Minniti, J. B. Pullen +7
The VVV survey has observed the southern disk of the Milky Way in the near infrared, covering 240 deg in the filters. We search the VVV Survey images in a 19…
