THOR 42: A touchstone 24 Myr-old eclipsing binary spanning the fully-convective boundary
Simon J. Murphy, Warrick A. Lawson, Christopher A. Onken +7
We present the characterization of CRTS J055255.7004426 (=THOR 42), a young eclipsing binary comprising two pre-main sequence M dwarfs (combined spectral type M3.5). This nearby…
Absorption at 11 microns in the interstellar medium and embedded sources: evidence for crystalline silicates
Christopher M Wright, Tho Do Duy, Warrick Lawson
An absorption feature is occasionally reported around 11 microns in astronomical spectra, including those of forming stars. Candidate carriers include water ice, polycyclic aromati…
New members of the TW Hydrae Association and two accreting M-dwarfs in Scorpius-Centaurus
Simon J. Murphy, Warrick A. Lawson, Joao Bento
We report the serendipitous discovery of several young mid-M stars found during a search for new members of the 30-40 Myr-old Octans Association. Only one of the stars may be consi…
New low-mass members of the Octans stellar association and an updated 30-40 Myr lithium age
Simon J. Murphy, Warrick A. Lawson
The Octans association is one of several young stellar moving groups recently discovered in the Solar neighbourhood, and hence a valuable laboratory for studies of stellar, circums…
Re-examining the membership and origin of the Epsilon Cha association
Simon J. Murphy, Warrick A. Lawson, Michael S. Bessell
We present a comprehensive investigation of the Epsilon Chamaeleontis association (Epsilon Cha), one of several young moving groups spread across the southern sky. We re-assess the…
Reverse dynamical evolution of Eta Chamaeleontis
Christophe Becker, Estelle Moraux, Gaspard Duchêne +2
In the scope of the star formation process, it is unclear how the environment shapes the initial mass function (IMF). While observations of open clusters propose a universal pictur…
