SPICY 30021: an embedded bona fide FUor with a mid-infrared precursor

Zhen Guo, Calum Morris, Vitor Fermiano +37

Unstable mass accretion in young stellar objects (YSOs) often leads to observable outbursts, which play a key role in stellar mass assembly during pre-main-sequence evolution. The…

Unresolved triples in the open cluster NGC 2437 (M 46) confirmed by the KMOS VVVX-GalCen Spectroscopic Survey

D. Minniti, T. Palma, C. O. Obasi +31

Recent optical and near-IR photometric databases like Gaia data release 3 (DR3) and the VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea eXtended (VVVX) ESO public survey allow the exploration of…

A Multiband Catalog of Infrared-Excess Sources in the Vela-Carina Region: VVVX, DECaPS, and GLIMPSE

R. M. Torres, R. K. Saito, V. Fermiano +4

Multiwavelength surveys of the Galactic midplane enable the identification of infrared-excess sources, signatures of circumstellar material, though high extinction and crowding hin…

Unresolved triple systems in the aged open cluster Trumpler 19: Discovery, confirmation, and implications

D. Minniti, R. K. Saito, V. D. Ivanov +31

It is difficult to identify unresolved triple and higher-order systems beyond the solar vicinity. Star clusters yield controlled environments with known physical parameters, provid…

Infrared-excess sources in VVV: candidate debris discs, SED characterization, and variability analysis

P. Esteves, R. K. Saito, C. Chavero +9

Debris disks around main-sequence stars provide important insights into planetary formation and evolution; however, identifying these systems in the Galactic plane, where high inte…

Hot water emission during an outburst in a classical T Tauri star

Zhen Guo, Javier Osses, Vitor Fermiano +34

In this paper, we present observations of an eruptive young star in the Rosette Nebula, identified by the Gaia Science Alerts system using Gaia time series data. We aim to investig…

Gaia24ccy: An outburst followed the footsteps of its predecessor

Koshvendra Singh, Joe P. Ninan, Zhen Guo +25

Accretion-driven outbursts in young stellar objects remain poorly understood, largely limited by a statistically small sample of closely followed-up events. This underscores the im…

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…
