Journal ArticleDOI

The disk-bearing young star IM Lupi - X-ray properties and limits on accretion

TL;DR: In this paper, a Chandra grating spectrum and additional XMM-Newton data of IM Lup and accompanying optical spectra were used to test whether these features correlate with accretion or the presence of a disk.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Nature of Stellar Winds in the Star-Disk Interaction

TL;DR: In this paper, the mass loss rate from accretion-powered coronal winds of T Tauri stars was analyzed and an upper limit was established for mass loss rates of 1e-11 solar masses per year.
Journal ArticleDOI

Velocity asymmetries in YSO jets: Intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigate the origin of asymmetric YSO jet velocities and explore the effects of a potential difference in the pressure of the environment, as a consequence of the non-uniform density distribution of molecular clouds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Relation of X-ray activity and rotation in M dwarfs and predicted time-evolution of the X-ray luminosity

TL;DR: In this article, a sample of 14 M dwarf stars observed with XMM-Newton and Chandra, for which they also computed rotational periods from Kepler Two-Wheel (K2) Mission light curves, were used to provide the largest uniform sample of M dwarfs (302 stars) for X-ray activity and rotation studies to date.
Journal ArticleDOI

Velocity asymmetries in young stellar object jets - Intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the origin of asymmetric YSO jet velocities, and investigate the efficiency of two candidate mechanisms, one based on the intrinsic properties of the system and the other on the role of the external medium.
