Linking circumstellar disk lifetimes to the rotational evolution of low-mass stars
Kristina Monsch, Jeremy J. Drake, Cecilia Garraffo +2
The high-energy radiation emitted by young stars can have a strong influence on their rotational evolution at later stages. This is because internal photoevaporation is one of the…
COBRaS: The e-MERLIN 21 cm Legacy survey of Cygnus OB2
J. C. Morford, D. M. Fenech, R. K. Prinja +12
The role of massive stars is central to an understanding of galactic ecology. It is important to establish the details of how massive stars provide radiative, chemical, and mechani…
X-ray spectral characterization of the young Cygnus OB2 population
E. Flaccomio, J. F. Albacete-Colombo, J. J. Drake +7
We analyze the X-ray spectra of the 8000 sources detected in the Cygnus OB2 Chandra Legacy Survey (Drake et al., this issue), with the goals of characterizing the coronal pla…
The Revolution Revolution: magnetic morphology driven spin-down
C. Garraffo, J. J. Drake, A. Dotter +6
Observations of young open clusters show a bimodal distribution of rotation periods that has been difficult to explain with existing stellar spin-down models. Detailed MHD stellar…
Giant coronal loops dominate the quiescent X-ray emission in rapidly rotating M stars
O. Cohen, R. Yadav, C. Garraffo +5
Observations indicate that magnetic fields in rapidly rotating stars are very strong, on both small and large scales. What is the nature of the resulting corona? Here we seek to sh…
The Space Weather of Proxima Centauri b
Cecilia Garraffo, Jeremy J. Drake, Ofer Cohen
A planet orbiting in the "habitable zone" of our closest neighboring star, Proxima Centauri, has recently been discovered, and the next natural question is whether or not Proxima b…
