With the purpose of performing a homogeneous determination of elemental abundances for members of the Lupus T association, we analyzed three chemical elements: lithium, iron, and barium. The aims were: to derive the Li abundance for ~90% of known class II stars in the Lupus I, II, III, IV clouds; to perform chemical tagging of a region where few Fe abundance measurements have been obtained in the past, and no determination of the Ba content has been done up to now. We also investigated possible Ba enhancement, as this element has become increasingly interesting in the last years following the evidence of Ba over-abundance in young clusters, the origin of which is still unknown. Using X-shooter@VLT, we analyzed the spectra of 89 cluster members, both class II and III stars. We measured the strength of the Li line and derived the abundance of this element through equivalent width measurements and curves of growth. For six class II stars we also measured the Fe and Ba abundances using the spectral synthesis and the code MOOG. The veiling contribution was taken into account for all three elements. We find a dispersion in the strength of the Li line at low Teff and identify three targets with severe Li depletion. The nuclear age inferred for these highly Li-depleted stars is around 15 Myr, which exceeds the isochronal one. As in other star-forming regions, no metal-rich members are found in Lupus, giving support to a recent hypothesis that the Fe abundance distribution of most of the nearby young regions could be the result of a common and widespread star formation episode involving the Galactic thin disk. We find that Ba is over-abundant by ~0.7 dex with respect to the Sun. Since current theoretical models cannot reproduce this Ba abundance pattern, we investigated whether this unusually large Ba content might be related to effects due to stellar parameters, stellar activity, and accretion.
New members of the Lupus I cloud based on Gaia astrometry Physical and accretion properties from X-Shooter spectra
我们表征12个年轻的恒星物体(YSO)位于狼疮I区域,空间上重叠的上半人马座狼疮(UCL)的亚恒星协会。本研究的目的是了解是否狼疮I云有更多的成员比已经声称到目前为止在文献中,并获得更深入的了解该地区的全球属性。我们使用盖亚DR 2目录选择了我们的目标,基于它们与狼疮I真正成员一致的运动学特性。在X射手观察到的12个YSO样本中,我们确定了10个狼疮I成员。由于技术问题,我们无法确定两个目标的成员状态,即Gaia DR 2 6014269268967059840和2 MASS J15361110-3444473。我们发现我们的四个目标是吸积体,其中2 MASS J15551027-3455045,质量约为0.03 M_Sun,是迄今为止狼疮复合体中质量最小的吸积体之一。我们的几个目标(包括吸积体)是相对于狼疮I的主灯丝在原位和离云形成的,因此,我们的研究可能暗示在狼疮I主灯丝周围有扩散的M-矮星种群。在这种情况下,我们想强调的是,我们与盖亚目录的运动学分析在识别狼疮I云的新成员方面发挥了关键作用。

The He I $λ$10830 $Å$ line as a probe of winds and accretion in young stars in Lupus and Upper Scorpius
He I 1微米线是一条高激发线,它使我们能够探测原恒星盘的最内部区域,并追踪吸积和流出的物质。我们使用X-Shooter观测的样本107年轻的恒星在狼(1-3百万年)和上天蝎座(5-10百万年)恒星形成区域的线属性之间的相关性,以及磁盘的倾斜度和吸积光度搜索。我们在样本中确定了八种不同的轮廓类型。我们将高斯曲线拟合到线特征以测量在吸收中跟踪的最大速度、线特征的半高宽(FWHM)和特征的高斯面积。我们将样本中每种配置文件类型的比例与之前在金牛座的研究进行比较。我们发现金牛座和狼疮之间的P天鹅座和逆P天鹅座配置文件的比例显着变化,狼疮和上天蝎座之间的排放量的唯一和组合配置文件类型的数量。我们发现,蓝移的吸收功能出现较少的蓝移在磁盘倾角接近边缘上,但没有这样的趋势与倾角观察只有红移功能的来源。在具有强烈蓝移特征的源中观察到更高的吸积速率,随着在两个区域观察到的每种剖面类型比例的变化,表明较年轻的源可能驱动更强的喷流或风。总的来说,我们观察到的比例的变化,每一个配置文件类型和线的属性,这表明和演化的吸积和喷射签名随着时间的推移,并与源属性。这些结果证实了过去的工作和模型的He I线,但对于一个更大的样本和多个恒星形成区。这项工作突出了He I线作为圆盘最内部区域气体探测器的力量。
