La Constellation Du Taureau
La constellation du Taureau La constellation zodiacale du Taurus – le Taureau – est parfaitement visible sous les deux hémisphères d’avril à février. (1) Un peu de mythologie Selon la légende, l’œil rouge du puissant Taureau surveille Orion, le Chasseur, des avances duquel il veut protéger les Sept Sœurs – les Pléiades -. Le cœur d’Orion est tourné vers Mérope, l’une des sœurs dont il veut faire sa femme cependant qu’au bord de l’Amas des Pléiades, les parents de celle-ci le Titan Atlas et l’Océanide Pléioné – les observent attentivement. Des sept Pléiades, jeunes étoiles bleues saphir, seule Mérope a épousé un mortel, le roi de Corinthe, aussi cache-t-elle sa honte derrière une fine nébuleuse par réflexion.

(3) Les Hyades sont les filles du dieu Atlas et de Pléione. Elles étaient 15 et avaient un frère nommé Hyas. Quand Hyas fut tué par un lion cinq des filles étaient inconsolables et ont été mises dans le ciel près de Hyas (constellation du Verseau) et ont été appelées les Hyades pour faire honneur à leur frère. Les sœurs qui restèrent pleuraient celles qui avaient été placées dans le ciel et à leur tour, s’y retrouvèrent et sont devenues les Pléiades.

WATSON,11 AND JAMES A. WESTPHAL12 Received 1997 December 18; accepted 1998 February 16 ABSTRACT We have observed the Ðeld of FS Tauri (Haro 6-5) with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 on the Hubble Space Telescope. Centered on Haro 6-5B and adjacent to the nebulous binary system of FS Tauri A there is an extended complex of reÑection nebulosity that includes a di†use, hourglass-shaped structure. H6-5B, the source of a bipolar jet, is not directly visible but appears to illuminate a compact, bipolar nebula which we assume to be a protostellar disk similar to HH 30. The bipolar jet appears twisted, which explains the unusually broad width measured in ground-based images. We present the Ðrst resolved photometry of the FS Tau A components at visual wavelengths. The Ñuxes of the fainter, eastern component are well matched by a 3360 K blackbody with an extinction ofAV \ 8. For the western star, however, any reasonable, reddened blackbody energy distribution underestimates the K-band photometry by over 2 mag. -
Observations of T-Tauri Stars Using HST-GHRS: II. Optical and Near UV Lines David R
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by CERN Document Server Submitted to ApJ Observations of T-Tauri Stars using HST-GHRS: II. Optical and Near UV lines David R. Ardila1, Gibor Basri2, Frederick M. Walter3, Jeff A. Valenti4, Christopher M. Johns-Krull5 ABSTRACT We have analyzed GHRS data of eight Classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs) and one Weak T Tauri star (WTTS). The GHRS data consist of an spectral range 40 A˚ wide centered on 2800 A.˚ For 4 of the CTTS we have nearly simultaneous optical observations which contain Hα,Hβ,HeI,NaD,andtheCaII infrared triplet. The Mg II resonance doublet is the strongest feature in the 2800 A˚ range. This line has a fairly wide and symmetric emission component ( 200 1 ∼ to 300 km s− for the CTTSs), with a narrow central absorption and a wide ∼ blueshifted absorption superimposed to it. The narrow central absorption width and equivalent width are inconsistent with being due only to ISM clouds described in the literature, which lead us to conclude that it is partially due to non-LTE processes in the emission line region itself. The emission profile closely follows Hα. Its large width in CTTS cannot be due to the Stark effect and we suggest that it is due to supersonic turbulence. All the stars show blueshifted absorptions 1 that are evidence of outflows (terminal velocities 300 km s− ), with multiple ∼ flows observed in two stars. We show evidence that the wind is not spherical, with wind signatures being stronger for lower inclinations at a given accretion rate. -

Ages derived from low mass stars still contracting onto the main sequence often differ from ages derived from the high mass ones that have already evolved away from it. Aims. We investigate the general claim of disagreement between these two independent age determinations by presenting UBVRI pho- tometry for the young galactic open clusters NGC 2232, NGC 2516, NGC 2547 and NGC 4755, spanning the age range ∼10–150 Myr Methods. We derived reddenings, distances, and nuclear ages by fitting ZAMS and isochrones to color–magnitudes and color–color di- agrams. To derive contraction ages, we used four different pre-main sequence models, with an empirically calibrated color-temperature relation to match the Pleiades cluster sequence. Results. When exclusively using the V vs. V − I color–magnitude diagram and empirically calibrated isochrones, there is consistency between nuclear and contraction ages for the studied clusters. -
High-Resolution Optical and Near-Infrared Imaging of Young Circumstellar Disks
HIGH-RESOLUTION OPTICAL AND NEAR-INFRARED IMAGING OF YOUNG CIRCUMSTELLAR DISKS MARK McCAUGHREAN Astrophysikalisches Institut Potsdam KARL STAPELFELDT Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology and LAIRD CLOSE Institute for Astronomy, University of Hawaii In the past five years, observations at optical and near-infrared wavelengths obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based adaptive op- tics have provided the first well-resolved images of young circumstellar disks which may form planetary systems. We review these two observational tech- niques and highlight their results by presenting prototype examples of disks imaged in the Taurns-Auriga and Orion star-forming regions. As appropri- ate, we discuss the disk parameters that may be typically derived from the observations, as well as the implications that the observations may have on our understanding of, for example, the role of the ambient environment in shaping the disk evolution. We end with a brief summary of the prospects for future improvements in space- and ground-based optical/IR imaging tech- niques, and how they may impact disk studies. I. DIRECT IMAGING OF CIRCUMSTELLAR DISKS The Copernican demotion of humankind away from the center of our local planetary system also provided the shift in perspective re- quired to understand its cosmogony. Once it was apparent that the solar system comprised a number of planets in essentially circular and coplanar orbits around the Sun, theories for its formation were devel- oped involving condensation from a rotating disk-shaped primordial nebula, or Urnebel. The so-called "Kant-Laplace nebular hypothesis" eventually held sway in the latter half of the twentieth century af- ter lengthy competition with rival "catastrophic" theories (see Koerner 1997 for a review), and was subsequently vindicated by the discovery of analogues to the Urnebel around young stars elsewhere in the galaxy. -

This book can be referenced as follows: Reipurth, B. 2016, http://ifa.hawaii.edu/SP1 i FOREWORD I first learned about George Herbig’s work when I was a teenager. I grew up in Denmark in the 1950s, a time when Europe was healing the wounds after the ravages of the Second World War. Already at the age of 7 I had fallen in love with astronomy, but information was very hard to come by in those days, so I scraped together what I could, mainly relying on the local library. At some point I was introduced to the magazine Sky and Telescope, and soon invested my pocket money in a subscription. Every month I would sit at our dining room table with a dictionary and work my way through the latest issue. In one issue I read about Herbig-Haro objects, and I was completely mesmerized that these objects could be signposts of the formation of stars, and I dreamt about some day being able to contribute to this field of study. -
