Context. The local (<200 pc away) young (<50 Myr old) stellar associations (LYSA) provide fundamental evidence for the study of the star formation process in the local neighbourhoo…
Why the Northern Hemisphere Needs a 30-40 m Telescope and the Science at Stake. How do Planetary Systems Form?
I. Mendigutía, N. Huélamo, I. Jiménez-Serra +32
The detection and characterization of protoplanets in protoplanetary disks around young stars is emerging as a transformative field that will redefine our understanding of how plan…
Disc fragmentation. I. Ejection of Jupiter-mass Free Floating Planets from growing binary systems
Aleksandra Ćalović, Sergei Nayakshin, Sarah Casewell +1
Over the past 25 years, observations have uncovered a large population of free-floating planets (FFPs), whose origins remain debated. Massive FFPs (several Jupiter masses or more)…
Toward the fabric of the Milky Way I. The density of disk streams from a local pc volume
Sebastian Ratzenböck, João Alves, Emily L. Hunt +3
We studied 12 disk streams found in a 250 pc volume in the solar neighborhood, which we define as coeval and comoving stellar structures with aspect ratios greater than 3:1…
The evolution of velocity dispersion in the Sco-Cen OB association
Josefa E. Großschedl, João Alves, Sebastian Ratzenböck +4
We study how the stellar velocity dispersion within the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association (Sco-Cen) has evolved over approximately 20 million years, from its formation to the prese…
The velocity field of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association
S. Hutschenreuter, J. Alves, L. Posch +5
We present a non-parametric reconstruction of the three-dimensional velocity field of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB association (Sco- Cen). Using Gaia DR3 astrometry and radial velocit…
Bayesian ages of local young stellar associations I. Through the expansion rate method
J. Olivares, N. Miret-Roig, P. A. B. Galli +1
Context. Local young stellar associations (LYSAs <50 Myr and <150 pc) are important laboratories to test predictions from star-formation theories. Estimating their ages through var…
Multiplicity of young isolated planetary mass objects in Taurus and Upper Scorpius
H. Bouy, G. Duchêne, G. Strampelli +12
Free-floating planetary mass objects--worlds that roam interstellar space untethered to a parent star--challenge conventional notions of planetary formation and migration, but also…
The Solar System's passage through the Radcliffe wave during the middle Miocene
E. Maconi, J. Alves, C. Swiggum +14
Context. As the Solar System orbits the Milky Way, it encounters various Galactic environments, including dense regions of the interstellar medium (ISM). These encounters can compr…
The TW Hydrae Association is a cluster chain of Sco-Cen
N. Miret-Roig, J. Alves, S. Ratzenböck +9
The TW Hydrae Association (TWA) is a young local association (YLA) about 50 pc from the Sun, offering a unique opportunity to study star and planet formation processes in detail. W…
The Sun's Birth Environment: Context for Meteoritics
Steve Desch, Núria Miret-Roig
Meteorites trace planet formation in the Sun's protoplanetary disk, but they also record the influence of the Sun's birth environment. Whether the Sun formed in a region like Tauru…
Gaia dr3 reveals the complex dynamical evolution within star clusters
C. Viscasillas Vázquez, L. Magrini, N. Miret-Roig +6
Context: Star clusters, composed of stars born from the same molecular cloud, serve as invaluable natural laboratories for understanding the fundamental processes governing stellar…
Dynamical traceback age of the Octans young stellar association
P. A. B. Galli, N. Miret-Roig, H. Bouy +2
Octans is one of the most distant (pc) young stellar associations of the solar neighbourhood. Its age is still poorly constrained in the literature and requires further i…
