The Rotation of Low-Mass Pre-Main-Sequence Stars
Major photometric monitoring campaigns of star-forming regions in the past decade have provided rich rotation period distributions of pre-main-sequence stars. The rotation periods span more than an order of magnitude in period, with most falling between 1 and 10 days. Thus the broad rotation period distributions found in 100 Myr clusters are already established by an age of 1 Myr. The most rapi...
متن کاملOn the post main sequence expansion of low mass stars
The post main sequence expansion of stars is investigated by means of a simple composite configuration: an isothermal He-core (allowing for non-relativistic electron degeneracy) is surrounded by a H-envelope of constant density (polytrope n = 0). Solving the equations of hydrostatic equilibrium for fixed values of total mass and temperature at the interface a one dimensional sequence of models ...
متن کاملMass-luminosity relation of low mass stars
The data on dynamic masses and multicolor photometry of 56 M-type components of binary/multiple systems was collected. Critical evaluation of late type stars bolometric correction scales have been performed. Our refined and reduced data is comparedwith published empirical and theoreticalmassluminosity relations. Our data does not exclude the existence of a step-like feature at MV = 12m. The bes...
متن کاملAngular momentum evolution of low-mass pre-main sequence stars via extreme coronal mass ejections
The angular momentum evolution of cool stars during the pre-main sequence phase of stellar evolution remains a major outstanding problem. Multiple processes are likely involved in the transfer of mass and angular momentum within and out of the star+disk system. The role of coronal mass ejections (CMEs), energetic events which shed mass and magnetic flux in the Sun, has yet to be fully explored ...
متن کاملAge-Related Observations of Low Mass Pre-Main and Young Main Sequence Stars (Invited Review)
This overview summarizes the age dating methods available for young sub-solar mass stars. Pre-main sequence age diagnostics include the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram, spectroscopic surface gravity indicators, and lithium depletion; asteroseismology is also showing recent promise. Near and beyond the zero-age main sequence, rotation period or vsini and activity (coronal and chromospheric) dia...
