- Description:
- We have developed a new method for spectral analysis of binaries. Our method successfully identifiesSB2 candidates from high-resolution Gaia-ESO spectra. Compared to the commonly used cross-correlation function analysis, it works for binaries with rapidly rotating components. We test our method on synthetic and observational spectra of BAFG-stars with vsin(i) from 1 to 330km/s in the open cluster M11. We confirm five previously detected SB2 candidates and find 19 new ones. For three SB2 candidates we find circular orbits and obtain dynamical mass ratios.

- Description:
- Presented are the estimates of open cluster dynamical parameters: the cluster core density contrast, the stellar velocity dispersions allowing for influence of Galaxy external field and non-stationarity of the cluster, the oscillation periods of the cluster and the cluster core, the amplitudes of oscillations of a cluster virial factor and a radius of the cluster core. All the values were analytically received as a result solution of the gross dynamical equations for spherical and ellipsoidal cluster models.

- Description:
- Young (<600Myr) low-mass stars (M<~1M_{sun}_) of equal mass exhibit a distribution of rotation periods. At the very early phases of stellar evolution, this distribution is set by the star-disc locking mechanism, which forces stars to rotate at the same rate as the inner edge of the disc. The primordial disc lifetime and consequently the duration of the disc-locking mechanism, can be significantly shortened by the presence of a close companion, making the rotation period distribution of close binaries different from that of either single stars or wide binaries. We use new data to investigate and better constrain the range of ages, the components separation, and the mass ratio dependence at which the rotation period distribution has been significantly affected by the disc dispersal that is enhanced by close companions. We select a sample of close binaries in the Upper Scorpius association (age~8Myr) whose components have measured the separation and the rotation periods and compare their period distribution with that of coeval stars that are single stars. We find that components of close binaries have, on average, rotation periods that are shorter than those of single stars. More precisely, binaries with approximately equal-mass components (0.9<=M2/M1<=1.0) have rotation periods that are shorter than those of single stars by ~0.4d on average; the primary and secondary components of binaries with smaller mass ratios (0.8<M2/M1<0.9) have rotation periods that are shorter than those of single stars by ~1.9d and ~1.0d on average, respectively. A comparison with the older 25-Myr {beta} Pictoris association shows that whereas in the latter, all close binaries with projected separation {rho}<=80AU rotate faster than single stars, in the Upper Scorpius this is only the case for about 70% of stars. We interpret the enhanced rotation in close binaries with respect to single stars as the consequence of an early disc dispersal induced by the presence of close companions. The enhanced rotation suggests that disc dispersal timescales are longest for single stars and shorter for close binaries.

- Description:
- Stellar kinematics provides the key to understanding the formation process and dynamical evolution of stellar systems. Here, we present a kinematic study of the massive star-forming region (SFR) W4 in the Cassiopeia OB6 association using the Gaia Data Release 2 and high-resolution optical spectra. This SFR is composed of a core cluster (IC1805) and a stellar population distributed over 20pc, which is a typical structural feature found in many OB associations. According to a classical model, this structural feature can be understood in the context of the dynamical evolution of a star cluster. The core-extended structure exhibits internally different kinematic properties. Stars in the core have an almost isotropic motion, and they appear to reach virial equilibrium given their velocity dispersion (0.9{+/-}0.3km/s) comparable to that in a virial state (~0.8km/s). On the other hand, the distributed population shows a clear pattern of radial expansion. From the N-body simulation for the dynamical evolution of a model cluster in subvirial state, we reproduce the observed structure and kinematics of stars. This model cluster experiences collapse for the first 2Myr. Some members begin to radially escape from the cluster after the initial collapse, eventually forming a distributed population. The internal structure and kinematics of the model cluster appear similar to those of W4. Our results support the idea that the stellar population distributed over 20pc in W4 originate from the dynamical evolution of IC1805.

- Description:
- We report the serendipitous discovery of several young mid-M stars found during a search for new members of the 30-40Myr-old Octans Association. Only one of the stars may be considered a possible Octans(-Near) member. However, two stars have proper motions, kinematic distances, radial velocities, photometry and LII {lambda}6708 measurements consistent with membership in the 8-10Myr-old TW Hydrae Association. Another may be an outlying member of TW Hydrae but has a velocity similar to that predicted by membership in Octans. We also identify two new lithium-rich members of the neighbouring Scorpius-Centaurus OB Association (Sco-Cen). Both exhibit large 12 and 22{mu}m excesses and strong, variable H{alpha} emission which we attribute to accretion from circumstellar discs. Such stars are thought to be incredibly rare at the ~16Myr median age of Sco-Cen and they join only one other confirmed M-type and three higher mass accretors outside of Upper Scorpius. The serendipitous discovery of two accreting stars hosting large quantities of circumstellar material may be indicative of a sizeable age spread in Sco-Cen, or further evidence that disc dispersal and planet formation time-scales are longer around lower mass stars. To aid future studies of Sco-Cen, we also provide a newly compiled catalogue of 305 early-type Hipparcos members with spectroscopic radial velocities sourced from the literature.

- Description:
- We employ CaII K and NaI D interstellar absorption-line spectroscopy of early-type stars in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds (LMC, SMC) to investigate the large- and small-scale structure in foreground intermediate- and high-velocity clouds (I/HVCs). Data include FLAMES-GIRAFFE CaII K observations of 403 stars in four open clusters, plus FEROS or UVES spectra of 156 stars in the LMC and SMC. The FLAMES observations are amongst the most extensive probes to date of CaII structures on ~20-arcsec scales in Magellanic I/HVCs. From the FLAMES data within a 0.5{deg} field of view, the CaII K equivalent width in the I/HVC components towards three clusters varies by factors of >=10. There are no detections of molecular gas in absorption at intermediate or high velocities, although molecular absorption is present at LMC and Galactic velocities towards some sightlines. The FEROS/UVES data show CaII K I/HVC absorption in ~60 per cent of sightlines. The range in the CaII/NaI ratio in I/HVCs is from -0.45 to +1.5dex, similar to previous measurements for I/HVCs. In 10 sightlines we find CaII/Oi ratios in I/HVC gas ranging from 0.2 to 1.5dex below the solar value, indicating either dust or ionization effects. In nine sightlines I/HVC gas is detected in both Hi and CaII at similar velocities, implying that the two elements form part of the same structure.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- The paper reports the results of an extensive X-ray study of the Hyades region and improves on previous studies by using refined X-ray source detection algorithms and the complete set of Einstein Observatory IPC exposures covering the Hyades cluster region (a total of 63 1 x 1 deg images). Maximum likelihood integral X-ray luminosity functions were computed for the Hyades stars for given color index (B-V) ranges. The present results agree substantially with a previous survey about the ubiquity of the stellar activity in the Hyades cluster, especially among solar-type stars. The result of Stern et al. (1981ApJ...249..647S) that stellar X-ray emission is dependent on stellar age is confirmed.

- Description:
- We present the results of a study of forbidden [OI]6300{AA} emission line profiles in classical T Tauri stars in the young, open cluster NGC 2264. We separate each of these profiles into up to four features via Gaussian decomposition: narrow and broad low-velocity components and blue- and redshifted high-velocity components. We study the luminosities and kinematic properties of these components along with known stellar and accretion parameters, in order to investigate their origins.

- Description:
- We have carried out a big FLAMES survey of 10 Galactic open clusters aiming at different goals. One of them is the determination of chemical abundances, in order to put constraints on the radial metallicity gradient in the disk and its evolution. One of the sample clusters is the very metal rich NGC 6253. We have obtained UVES high resolution spectra of seven candidate clusters members (from the turn off up to the red clump) with the goal of determining the chemical composition of NGC 6253 and to investigate its origin and role in the interpretation of the radial metallicity gradient in the disk.
