Young Faithful: The Eruptions of EC 53 as It Cycles through Filling and Draining the Inner Disk
Yong-Hee Lee, Doug Johnstone, Jeong-Eun Lee +10
While young stellar objects sometimes undergo bursts of accretion, these bursts usually occur sporadically, making them challenging to study observationally and to explain theoreti…
Discovery of a mid-infrared protostellar outburst of exceptional amplitude
P. W. Lucas, J. Elias, S. Points +12
We report the discovery of a mid-infrared outburst in a Young Stellar Object (YSO) with an amplitude close to 8 mag at 4.6 m. WISEA J142238.82-611553.7 is one of 23…
Radiative Transfer modeling of EC 53: An Episodically Accreting Class I Young Stellar Object
Giseon Baek, Benjamin A. MacFarlane, Jeong-Eun Lee +8
In the episodic accretion scenario, a large fraction of the protostellar mass accretes during repeated and large bursts of accretion. Since outbursts on protostars are typically id…
VVV-WIT-01: highly obscured classical nova or protostellar collision?
P. W. Lucas, D. Minniti, A. Kamble +18
A search of the first Data Release of the VISTA Variables in the Via Lactea (VVV) Survey discovered the exceptionally red transient VVV-WIT-01 (). It peaked before March…
