- Description:
- We present a deep survey of H{alpha} emission-line stars in the NGC 2264 region using wide-field objective prism films. We find 357 H{alpha} emission-line stars, of which 113 were previously detected, within an area of 3{deg}x3{deg} centered on the Cone Nebula, with a majority of stars being concentrated in a dense cluster at the center of the region. We present a large-scale CO map of NGC 2264 and find a strong correlation between the cluster of H{alpha} emission-line stars and the most massive core in the cloud complex. A more extended halo of stars poorly correlated with the gas may represent stars that have drifted away from their birth place, suggesting that star formation has taken place in NGC 2264 for several million years.

- CDS
- Description:
- L988 is a large (~0.5{deg}x0.7{deg}) dark cloud complex at about 600pc that contains several bright pre-main-sequence objects (such as V1331 Cyg and LkH{alpha} 321), but this paper deals in detail only with a small region on its eastern edge, near the HAeBe star LkH{alpha} 324. That star and its distant companion LkH{alpha} 324SE lie at the apex of a V-shaped area apparently excavated from the edge of L988, and are the brightest members of a small cluster containing about 50 H{alpha}-emission stars.

- Description:
- An H{alpha} emission survey of the young cluster NGC 2362 resulted in the detection of 130 H{alpha} emission stars in an 11'x11' field approximately centered on the fourth magnitude O9 Ib multiple star {tau} CMa. The survey was carried out using the wide-field grism spectrograph on the University of Hawaii 2.2m telescope and the Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph (GMOS) on Gemini North. Deep optical VR_C_I_C_ (to V~23.0) and near-infrared (NIR) photometry (JHK) to K~16 were obtained for several fields within the cluster. Spectra covering the 6000-8000{AA} region at a resolution of R~3000 (adequate for the determination of LiI{lambda}6708 line strengths) were also acquired for ~200 pre-main-sequence (PMS) candidates with GMOS.

- Description:
- An H{alpha} emission survey of the young cluster NGC 2264 in the Mon OB1 association resulted in the detection of 490 H{alpha} emission stars in a 25'x40' field approximately centered between the O7 V multiple star S Mon and the Cone Nebula. The survey was carried out with the wide-field grism spectrograph (WFGS) on the University of Hawaii 2.2m telescope on Mauna Kea. X-ray observations made with the European Photon Imaging Camera (EPIC) on board the European Space Agency's XMM-Newton satellite observatory will be discussed in a subsequent paper. Optical (BVR_C_I_C_) photometry was obtained for selected fields to supplement similar data from the literature. Spectra covering the 6000-8000{AA} region at a resolution of R~3000 (adequate for the determination of Li I {lambda}6708 line strengths) were obtained for 150 H{alpha} and X-ray emission sources with the Gemini Multi-Object Spectrograph (GMOS).

- H{alpha} emitting sources around MWC758
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/613/L5

- Description:
- MWC758 is a young star surrounded by a transitional disk. The disk shows an inner cavity and spiral arms that could be caused by the presence of protoplanets. Recently, a protoplanet candidate has been detected around MWC758 through high-resolution L'-band observations. The candidate is located inside the disk cavity at a separation of 111 mas from the central star, and at an average position angle of 165.5{deg}. We aim at detecting accreting protoplanet candidates within the disk of MWC758 through spectral angular differential imaging observations in the optical regime. In particular, we explore the emission at the position of the detected planet candidate. We have performed simultaneous adaptive optics observations in the H{alpha} line and the adjacent continuum using SPHERE/ZIMPOL at the Very Large Telescope (VLT). The data analysis does not reveal any H{alpha} signal around the target. The derived contrast curve in the B_Ha filter allows us to derive a 5{sigma} upper limit of 7.6mag at 111mas, the separation of the previously detected planet candidate. This contrast translates into a H{alpha} line luminosity of LH{alpha}<~5*10^-5^L_{sun}_ at 111mas. Assuming that LH{alpha} scales with Lacc as in Classical T Tauri stars as a first approximation, we can estimate an accretion luminosity of Lacc<3.7*10^-4^L_{sun}_ for the protoplanet candidate. For the predicted mass range of MWC758b, 0.5-5M_Jup_, this implies accretion rates smaller than dM/dt<3.4*(10^-8^-10^-9^)M_[sun}_/yr, for an average planet radius of 1.1 RJup. Therefore, our estimates are consistent with the predictions of accreting circumplanetary accretion models for R_in_=1R_Jup_. The ZIMPOL line luminosity is consistent with the H{alpha} upper limit predicted by these models for truncation radii <~3.2R_Jup_. The non-detection of any H{alpha}emitting source in the ZIMPOL images does not allow us to unveil the nature of the L' detected source. Either it is a protoplanet candidate or a disk asymmetry.

- H{alpha} spectroscopy in IC 1396 HII region
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/143/61
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have made an extensive survey of emission-line stars in the IC 1396 H II region to investigate the low-mass population of pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars. A total of 639 H{alpha} emission-line stars were detected in an area of 4.2deg^2^ and their i' photometry was measured. Their spatial distribution exhibits several aggregates near the elephant trunk globule (Rim A) and bright-rimmed clouds at the edge of the H II region (Rim B and SFO 37, 38, 39, 41), and near HD206267, which is the main exciting star of the HII region. Based on the extinction estimated from the near-infrared color-color diagram, we have selected PMS star candidates associated with IC1396. The age and mass were derived from the extinction-corrected color-magnitude diagram and theoretical PMS tracks. Most of our PMS candidates have ages of <3Myr and masses of 0.2-0.6M_{sun}_. Although it appears that only a few stars were formed in the last 1Myr in the east region of the exciting star, the age difference among subregions in our surveyed area is not clear from the statistical test. Our results may suggest that massive stars were born after the continuous formation of low-mass stars for 10Myr. The birth of the exciting star could be the late stage of slow but contiguous star formation in the natal molecular cloud. It may have triggered the formation of many low-mass stars at the dense inhomogeneity in and around the HII region by a radiation-driven implosion.

- H{alpha} stars and HH objects near BRCs

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Bright-rimmed clouds (BRCs) found in H II regions are probably sites of triggered star formation due to compression by ionization/shock fronts. Many BRCs harbor IRAS point sources of low dust temperature. They also frequently contain a small cluster of near-IR stars that is elongated along the axis of the BRC. Here we present the results of our H{alpha} grism spectroscopy and narrowband imaging observations of BRCs in search of candidate premain-sequence stars of the T Tauri, Herbig Ae/Be and related types, and Herbig-Haro (HH) objects. We have detected a large number (460) of H{alpha} emission stars down to a limiting magnitude of about R=20 in and around all but two of the 28 BRCs observed. The present study has, for the first time, reached down nearly to the faintest classical T Tauri star population in OB associations. A total of 12 new HH objects have been found.

- Description:
- We have carried out near-IR/optical observations to examine star formation toward a bright-rimmed cometary globule (BRC37) facing the exciting star(s) of an HII region (IC1396) containing an IRAS source, which is considered to be an intermediate-mass protostar. With slitless spectroscopy we detected ten H{alpha} emission stars around the globule, six of which are near the tip of the globule and are aligned along the direction to the exciting stars.

- HCO+, CN, and 13CO maps of R Mon
- Short Name:

- Description:
- To our knowledge, R Mon is the only B0 star in which a gaseous Keplerian disk has been detected. However, there is some controversy about the spectral type of R Mon. Some authors propose that it could be a later B8e star, where disks are more common. Our goal is to re-evaluate the R Mon spectral type and characterize its protoplanetary disk. The spectral type of R Mon has been re-evaluated using the available continuum data and UVES emission lines. We used a power-law disk model to fit previous ^12^CO 1-0 and 2-1 interferometric observations and the PACS CO data to investigate the disk structure. Interferometric detections of ^13^CO J=1-0, HCO^+^ 1-0, and CN 1-0 lines using the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer (PdBI) are presented. The HCN 1-0 line was not detected. Our analysis confirms that R Mon is a B0 star. The disk model compatible with the ^12^CO 1-0 and 2-1 interferometric observations falls short of predicting the observed fluxes of the 14<Ju<31 PACS lines; this is consistent with the scenario in which some contribution to these lines is coming from a warm envelope and/or UV-illuminated outflow walls. More interestingly, the upper limits to the fluxes of the Ju>31 CO lines suggest the existence of a region empty of CO at R<=20au in the proto-planetary disk. The intense emission of the HCO^+^ and CN lines shows the strong influence of UV photons on gas chemistry. The observations gathered in this paper are consistent with the presence of a transition disk with a cavity of Rin>=20 au around R Mon. This size is similar to the photoevaporation radius that supports the interpretation that UV photoevaporation is main disk dispersal mechanism in massive stars

- Description:
- HD142527 observations were performed with SPHERE in the IRDIFS_EXT mode, with IRDIS observing in dual-band imaging with the K12 filter pair (wavelength K1=2.110 micron; K2=2.251 micron), while IFS obtains low-resolution (R=30) spectra between 0.95 and 1.65 micron. HD142527 was also observed in the SAM mode for SPHERE (we present the first observations that ever used the sparse aperture mask in SPHERE). We detect the accreting low-mass companion HD142527B at a separation of 73mas (11.4au) from the star.
