VVV-WIT-13: an eruptive young star with cool molecular features
Zhen Guo, Philip Lucas, Sergey N. Yurchenko +27
Here we investigate an infrared eruptive source, identified from the decade-long VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea survey (VVV). We named this target after a group of variable sour…
Eruptive YSOs in Cygnus-X: a mid-infrared variability study with NEOWISE and SPICY
C. Morris, Z. Guo, P. W. Lucas +3
The mass accretion process controls pre-main-sequence evolution, although its intrinsic instability has yet to be fully understood, especially towards the protostellar stage. In th…
The verification of periodicity with the use of recurrent neural networks
Niall Miller, Philip Lucas, Yi Sun +3
The ability to automatically and robustly self-verify periodicity present in time-series astronomical data is becoming more important as data sets rapidly increase in size. The age…
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…
A survey for variable young stars with small telescopes: VI -- Analysis of the outbursting Be stars NSW284, Gaia19eyy, and VES263
Dirk Froebrich, Lynne A. Hillenbrand, Carys Herbert +44
This paper is one in a series reporting results from small telescope observations of variable young stars. Here, we study the repeating outbursts of three likely Be stars based on…
A survey for variable young stars with small telescopes: IV -- Rotation Periods of YSOs in IC5070
Dirk Froebrich, Efthymia Derezea, Aleks Scholz +50
Studying rotational variability of young stars is enabling us to investigate a multitude of properties of young star-disk systems. We utilise high cadence, multi-wavelength optical…
