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…

The long-term outburst(s) of GPSV16: from an intermediate to a FUor classification

Carlos Contreras Peña, Jeong-Eun Lee, Philip W. Lucas +8

FU Ori outbursts are thought to play a key role in stellar mass assembly and in the chemistry of protoplanetary disks during the early formation of stars. However, uncertainties re…

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…

Young Stellar Objects in the Carina nebula: Near-Infrared variability and spectroscopy

Jura Borissova, Radostin Kurtev, Josemanuel Escobar +10

We present a catalog of 652 young stellar objects (YSOs) in the Carina star-forming region. The catalog was constructed by combining near-infrared Ks-band variability from the VIST…

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…

New Eruptive YSOs from SPICY and WISE

C. Contreras Peña, M. Ashraf, J. E. Lee +6

This work presents four high-amplitude variable YSOs ( 3 mag at near- or mid-IR wavelengths) arising from the SPICY catalog. Three outbursts show a duration that is longer…
