Gaia Data Release 2: Properties and validation of the radial velocities

D. Katz, P. Sartoretti, M. Cropper +51

For Gaia DR2 (GDR2), 280 million spectra, collected by the RVS instrument on-board Gaia, were processed and median radial velocities were derived for 9.8 million sources brighter t…

Gaia Data Release 2: Observational Hertzsprung-Russell diagrams

Gaia Collaboration, C. Babusiaux, F. van Leeuwen +450

We highlight the power of the Gaia DR2 in studying many fine structures of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram (HRD). Gaia allows us to present many different HRDs, depending in partic…

The disappearing act: A dusty wind eclipsing RW Aur

I. Bozhinova, A. Scholz, G. Costigan +8

RW Aur is a young binary star that experienced a deep dimming in 2010-11 in component A and a second even deeper dimming from summer 2014 to summer 2016. We present new unresolved…

Understanding discs in binary YSOs: detailed modelling of VV CrA

P. Scicluna, S. Wolf, T. Ratzka +6

Given that a majority of stars form in multiple systems, in order to fully understand the star- and planet-formation processes we must seek to understand them in multiple stellar s…

Pre- and Post-burst Radio Observations of the Class 0 Protostar HOPS 383 in Orion

Roberto Galván-Madrid, Luis F. Rodríguez, Hauyu B. Liu +5

There is increasing evidence that episodic accretion is a common phenomenon in Young Stellar Objects (YSOs). Recently, the source HOPS 383 in Orion was reported to have a $\times 3…

Temperaments of young stars: Rapid mass-accretion rate changes in T Tauri and Herbig Ae stars

Gráinne Costigan, Jorick S. Vink, Aleks Scholz +2

Variability in emission lines is a characteristic feature in young stars and can be used as a tool to study the physics of the accretion process. Here we present a study of Hα vari…

Disks, accretion and outflows of brown dwarfs

V. Joergens, G. Herczeg, Y. Liu +13

Characterization of the properties of young brown dwarfs are important to constraining the formation of objects at the extreme low-mass end of the IMF. While young brown dwarfs sha…

Magnetic activity and accretion on FU Tau A: Clues from variability

Aleks Scholz, Beate Stelzer, Grainne Costigan +5

FU Tau A is a young very low mass object in the Taurus star forming region which was previously found to have strong X-ray emission and to be anomalously bright for its spectral ty…
