  • SPITZER: Accretion in Low Mass Stars and Brown Dwarfs in the Lambda
    SPITZER: Accretion in Low Mass Stars and Brown Dwarfs in the Lambda Orionis Cluster1 David Barrado y Navascu´es Laboratorio de Astrof´ısica Espacial y F´ısica Fundamental, LAEFF-INTA, P.O. Box 50727, E-28080 Madrid, SPAIN [email protected] John R. Stauffer Spitzer Science Center, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125 Mar´ıaMorales-Calder´on, Amelia Bayo Laboratorio de Astrof´ısica Espacial y F´ısica Fundamental, LAEFF-INTA, P.O. Box 50727, E-28080 Madrid, SPAIN Giovanni Fazzio, Tom Megeath, Lori Allen Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, Cambridge, MA 02138 Lee W. Hartmann, Nuria Calvet Department of Astronomy, University of Michigan ABSTRACT We present multi-wavelength optical and infrared photometry of 170 previously known low mass stars and brown dwarfs of the 5 Myr Collinder 69 cluster (Lambda Orionis). The new photometry supports cluster membership for most of them, with less than 15% of the previous candidates identified as probable non-members. The near infrared photometry allows us to identify stars with IR excesses, and we find that the Class II population is very large, around arXiv:0704.1963v1 [astro-ph] 16 Apr 2007 25% for stars (in the spectral range M0 - M6.5) and 40% for brown dwarfs, down to 0.04 M⊙, despite the fact that the Hα equivalent width is low for a significant fraction of them. In addition, there are a number of substellar objects, classified as Class III, that have optically thin disks. The Class II members are distributed in an inhomogeneous way, lying preferentially in a filament running toward the south-east.

  • Popular Names of Deep Sky (Galaxies,Nebulae and Clusters) Viciana’S List
    POPULAR NAMES OF DEEP SKY (GALAXIES,NEBULAE AND CLUSTERS) VICIANA’S LIST 2ª version August 2014 There isn’t any astronomical guide or star chart without a list of popular names of deep sky objects. Given the huge amount of celestial bodies labeled only with a number, the popular names given to them serve as a friendly anchor in a broad and complicated science such as Astronomy The origin of these names is varied. Some of them come from mythology (Pleiades); others from their discoverer; some describe their shape or singularities; (for instance, a rotten egg, because of its odor); and others belong to a constellation (Great Orion Nebula); etc. The real popular names of celestial bodies are those that for some special characteristic, have been inspired by the imagination of astronomers and amateurs. The most complete list is proposed by SEDS (Students for the Exploration and Development of Space). Other sources that have been used to produce this illustrated dictionary are AstroSurf, Wikipedia, Astronomy Picture of the Day, Skymap computer program, Cartes du ciel and a large bibliography of THE NAMES OF THE UNIVERSE. If you know other name of popular deep sky objects and you think it is important to include them in the popular names’ list, please send it to [email protected] with at least three references from different websites. If you have a good photo of some of the deep sky objects, please send it with standard technical specifications and an optional comment. It will be published in the names of the Universe blog. It could also be included in the ILLUSTRATED DICTIONARY OF POPULAR NAMES OF DEEP SKY.

  • 2017 Meeting Minutes
    Big Bear Valley Astronomical Society February 2017 Minutes Welcome: . New members or 1st time visitors? - New member Jane. This was her first time to a meeting. Learned about BBVAS at the Erwin Lake Star Party. Attendees were Stan, Deanna, John V, Claude, Teresa, Wes, Dick, Randy, Jane, John D, Byron, Matt and Tom. Announcements: None Treasurer/Membership Report: . 30 paid members. Treasury currently at $788.50 Comments, reports, discussions, reviews: . Virtual Lecture-Dr. Paul Butler, co-discoverer of Proxima B planet live from Oz!! - Unanimous opinion is that it was great! - That and other past lectures are available on our BBVAS Facebook page. December’s Solstice Potluck - Great fun! Activities . February 23, Dr Kelley Fast, NASA HQ – Hunting NEO’s - This talk was rescheduled to this month after being cancelled due to weather last month. - Topic will be “Planetary Defense”. - This led to a comment that a recent meteor came down in Lake Erie! . Star Party Feb 25th – where? GMARS or Johnson Valley? - This will fall on the actual night of new moon. - Teresa will check that it’s okay with GMARS. - We will meet at China House and caravan to the site. It was pointed out that there had recently been a problem with the coop well in Lucerne Valley and China House didn’t have water. We will verify that this is no longer a problem before the star party. A route map will be emailed out to everyone. March 3 – Urban Assault, finally! - Weather and ground snow permitting, we will set up in the normal spot in the Village.

Stauffer IPAC, California Institute of Technology (USA) stauff[email protected] Jerome Bouvier Laboratoire d’Astrophysique, Observatoire de Grenoble (FRANCE) [email protected] Ray Jayawardhana University of Toronto (CANADA) [email protected] arXiv:astro-ph/0411438v1 16 Nov 2004 Abstract The Lambda Orionis Star Forming Region is a complex structure which includes the Col 69 (Lambda Orionis) cluster and the B30 & B35 dark clouds. We have collected deep optical photometry and spectroscopy in the central cluster of the SFR (Col 69), and combined with 2MASS IR data, in order to derive the Initial Mass Function of the cluster, in the range 50-0.02 M⊙. In addition, we have studied the Hα and lithium equivalent widths, and the optical-infrared photometry, to derive an age (5±2 Myr) for Col 69, and to compare these properties to those of B30 & B35 members. Keywords: The Initial Mas Function – Low Mass Stars and Brown Dwarfs – Lambda Orionis cluster 2 Figure 1. IRAS map at 100 µ of the Lambda Orionis Star Forming Region (contour levels in purple). B stars are displayed as blue four points stars (size related to brightness). Red crosses and green, solid circles represent stars listed in D&M. In the case of the green circles, they have an excess in the Hα emission (see Figure 11). We have labeled the location of several stellar associations and dark clouds.

  • On the Age of the TW Hydrae Association and 2M1207334-393254
    A&A 459, 511–518 (2006) Astronomy DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361:20065717 & c ESO 2006 Astrophysics On the age of the TW Hydrae association and 2M1207334−393254, D. Barrado y Navascués Laboratorio de Astrofísica Espacial y Física Fundamental, LAEFF - INTA, PO Box 50727, 28080 Madrid, Spain e-mail: [email protected] Received 29 May 2006 / Accepted 4 August 2006 ABSTRACT Aims. We have estimated the age of the young moving group TW Hydrae Association, a cohort of a few dozen stars and brown dwarfs located near the Sun which share the same kinematic properties and, presumably, the same origin and age. Methods. The chronology has been determined by analyzing different properties (magnitudes, colors, activity, lithium) of its members and comparing them with several well-known star forming regions and open clusters, as well as theoretical models. In addition, by using medium-resolution optical spectra of two M8 members of the association (2M1139 and 2M1207 – an accreting brown dwarf with a planetary mass companion), we have derived spectral types and measured Hα and lithium equivalent widths. We have also estimated their effective temperature and gravity, which were used to produce an independent age estimation for these two brown dwarfs. We have also collected spectra of 2M1315, a candidate member with a L5 spectral type and measured its Hα equivalent width. +10 Results. Our age estimate for the association, 10−7 Myr, agrees with previous values cited in the literature. In the case of the two +15 brown dwarfs, we have derived an age of 15−10 Myr, which also agree with our estimate for the whole group.
