- Description:
- We present an i-band photometric study of over 800 young stellar objects in the OB association Cep OB3b, which samples timescales from 1 minute to ten years. Using structure functions we show that on all timescales (tau) there is a monotonic decrease in variability from Class I to Class II through the transition disc (TD) systems to Class III, i.e. the more evolved systems are less variable. The Class Is show an approximately power-law increase (tau^0.8^) in variability from timescales of a few minutes to ten years. The Class II, TDs and Class III systems show a qualitatively different behaviour with most showing a power-law increase in variability to a timescale corresponding to the rotational period of the star, with little additional variability beyond that timescale. However, about a third of the Class IIs show lower overall variability, but their variability is still increasing at 10 years. This behaviour can be explained if all Class IIs have two primary components to their variability. The first is an underlying roughly power-law variability spectrum, which evidence from the infrared suggests is driven by accretion rate changes. The second component is an approximately sinusoidal and results from the rotation of the star. We suggest that the systems with dominant longer-timescale variability have a smaller rotational modulation either because they are seen at low inclinations or have more complex magnetic field geometries. We derive a new way of calculating structure functions for large simulated datasets (the "fast structure function"), based on fast Fourier transforms.

- Description:
- The results of a combined astrometric, photometric, and spectroscopic program to identify members of the open cluster IC 4665 are presented. Numerous new proper motion/photometric candidate members and at least 23 M dwarfs with H-alpha emission have been identified. A reanalysis of IC 4665's age using different methods yields conflicting results ranging from approx. 3x10^7^ yr to the age of the Pleiades. This study provides a list of candidate cluster members in the intermediate and low-mass regime of this cluster. Future spectroscopic observations of these candidates should eventually identify true cluster members. The results of new echelle observations of some candidates and the photometric monitoring of one apparent cluster member are given in an appendix.

- Description:
- The results of a UBV CCD photometric study of the cluster IC 4996 are presented. We obtain new values for the cluster parameters: E(B-V)=0.71+/-0.08, V_0_-M_V_=11.9+/-0.1, and age=(7.5+/-3)x10^6^yr. The combined evidence from the photometric diagrams suggests the presence of a number of premain-sequence (PMS) cluster members with spectral types ~A0 to F5. The interpretation of these objects as PMS candidates is further supported by independent results from CCD uvbyH{beta} observations. If confirmed, these stars would bridge the existing gap in the sample of PMS stars, between the coolest Herbig AeBe stars (HAeBe), and the hottest T Tauri stars. These PMS candidates are located some 0.5 and 1 mag above the main sequence in the V-(B-V) diagram, around the location of spectral types AF. This feature, together with their locations in the (U-B)-(B-V) diagram and the interpretation that they are PMS members, suggest an additional reddening law with a slope {alpha}=E(U-B)/E(B-V)~0.55, probably caused by circumstellar material.

- Description:
- The study of star formation is extremely challenging due to the lack of complete and clean samples of young, nearby clusters, and star forming regions. The recent Gaia DR2 catalogue complemented with the deep, ground based COSMIC DANCe catalogue offers a new database of unprecedented accuracy to revisit the membership of clusters and star forming regions. The 30 Myr open cluster IC 4665 is one of the few well-known clusters of this age and it is an excellent target where to test evolutionary models and study planetary formation. We aim to provide a comprehensive membership analysis of IC 4665 and to study the following properties: empirical isochrones, distance, magnitude distribution, present-day system mass function, and spatial distribution. We use the Gaia DR2 catalogue together with the DANCe catalogue to look for members using a probabilistic model of the distribution of the observable quantities in both the cluster and background populations. We obtain a final list of 819 candidate members which cover a 12.4 magnitude range (7<J<19.4). We find that 50% are new candidates, and we estimate a conservative contamination rate of 20%. This unique sample of members allows us to obtain a present-day system mass function in the range of 0.02-6M_{sun}_, which reveals a number of details not seen in previous studies. In addition, they favour a spherically symmetric spatial distribution for this young open cluster. Our membership analysis represents a significant increase in the quantity and quality (low-contamination) with respect to previous studies. As such, it offers an excellent opportunity to revisit other fundamental parameters such as the age.

- Description:
- We present a new census of the stellar and substellar members of the young cluster IC 348. We have obtained images at I and Z for a 42'x28' field encompassing the cluster and have combined these measurements with previous optical and near-infrared photometry. From spectroscopy of candidate cluster members appearing in these data, we have identified 122 new members, 15 of which have spectral types of M6.5M9, corresponding to masses of ~0.08-0.015M_{sun}_ by recent evolutionary models. The latest census for IC 348 now contains a total of 288 members, 23 of which are later than M6 and thus are likely to be brown dwarfs.

- Description:
- Debris discs orbiting young stars are key to understand dust evolution and the planetary formation process.We take advantage of a recent membership analysis of the 30Myr nearby open cluster IC 4665 based on the Gaia and DANCe surveys to revisit the disc population of this cluster. We aim to study the disc population of IC 4665 using Spitzer (MIPS and IRAC) and WISE photometry. We use several colour-colour diagrams with empirical photospheric sequences to detect the sources with an infrared excess. Independently, we also fit the spectral energy distribution (SED) of our debris disc candidates with the Virtual Observatory SED analyser (VOSA) which is capable of automatically detecting infrared excesses and provides effective temperature estimates. We find six candidates debris disc host-stars (five with MIPS and one with WISE) and two of them are new candidates. We estimate a disc fraction of 24+/-10% for the B-A stars, where our sample is expected to be complete. This is similar to what has been reported in other clusters of similar ages (Upper Centaurus Lupus, Lower Centaurus Crux, the $\beta$ Pictoris moving group, and the Pleiades). For solar type stars we find a disk fraction of 9+/-9%, lower than that observed in regions with comparable ages. Our candidates debris disc host-stars are excellent targets to be studied with ALMA or the future James Webb Space Telescope (JWST).

- Description:
- We present a photometric study of I-band variability in the young cluster IC 348. The main purpose of the study was to identify periodic stars. In all, we find 50 periodic stars, of which 32 were previously unknown. For the first time in IC 348, we discover periods in significant numbers of lower-mass stars (M<0.25M_{sun}_) and classical T Tauri stars.

- Description:
- A new proper motion study for about 1400 stars with R<18mag in a one square degree region around the young open cluster IC 348 based on Schmidt plates is presented. With an overall accuracy of about 3mas/yr (2.5mas/yr, respectively for all stars with R<17mag) we have obtained membership probabilities dividing our sample into three groups: foreground stars, cluster stars and background stars. This separation is also supported by the proper motion distribution with respect to the direction of the standard antapex and an increase of mean proper motion cluster membership probabilities with smaller cluster radii. 240 stars of our sample have cluster membership probabilities larger than 80%.

- Description:
- UBV photoelectric photometry for 204 stars in the field of the southern open cluster IC 2714 supplemented by DDO and Washington photometry and Coravel radial velocities of 14 probable red giants, are presented. The analysis of the photometric and kinematical data yielded 132 probable members and 13 possible members. IC 2714 contains one variable star and 11 red giant members, one of them being a spectroscopic binary. Two red giants are either binaries or non-members. The reddening across the cluster is slightly variable, the mean value is E(B-V)=0.36. The cluster distance-modulus is 11.68, corresponding to a distance of 1320(+/-120)pc and the mean radial velocity is -14.1+/-0.3km/s. The age, determined by fitting isochrones with core overshooting turned out to be log(t)=8.5, corresponding to 3.2 10^8 yr. A metal abundance [Fe/H]=-0.12+/-0.09 relative to the Sun and other fundamental parameters are determined. The luminosity function of the bright members of IC 2714 in good agreement with that determined by Taff (1974AJ.....79.1280T).
