ABYSS II: Identification of young stars in optical SDSS spectra and their properties

Serat Saad, Kaitlyn Lane, Marina Kounkel +9

We developed a tool that measures equivalent widths of various lines in low resolution optical spectra, and it was applied to stellar spectra obtained as part of SDSS-V and LAMOST…

Pre-main Sequence Brackett Emitters in the APOGEE DR17 Catalog: Line Strengths and Physical Properties of Accretion Columns

Hunter Campbell, Elliott Khilfeh, Kevin R. Covey +21

Very young (t 10 Myrs) stars possess strong magnetic fields that channel ionized gas from the interiors of their circumstellar discs to the surface of the star. Upon imp…

Stellar Rotation of T Tauri stars in the Orion Star-Forming Complex

Javier Serna, Jesús Hernández, Marina Kounkel +14

We present a large-scale study of stellar rotation for T Tauri stars in the Orion Star-Forming Complex. We use the projected rotational velocity () estimations reported b…

Close companions around young stars

Marina Kounkel, Kevin Covey, Maxwell Moe +26

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 companion…

Optical and near-infrared linear polarization of low and intermediate-gravity ultra-cool dwarfs

P. A. Miles-Páez, M. R. Zapatero Osorio, E. Pallé +1

We aim to study the optical and near-infrared linear polarimetric properties of a sample of young M7-L7 dwarfs (1-500 Myr) with spectroscopic signatures of low- and interm…

Physical parameters of late M-type members of Chamaleon I and TW Hydrae Association: Dust settling, age dispersion and activity

A. Bayo, D. Barrado, F. Allard +6

Although mid-to-late type M dwarfs are the most common stars in our stellar neighborhood, our knowledge of these objects is still limited. Open questions include the evolution of t…
