UV-selected stars in Tau and Upper Sco

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We have carried out a Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Cycle 1 guest investigator program covering 56deg^2^ near the Taurus T association and 12deg^2^ along the northern edge of the Upper Scorpius OB association.

Description

We combined photometry in the GALEX far-ultraviolet and near-ultraviolet bands with data from the Two Micron All Sky Survey to identify candidate young (<~100Myr old) stars as those with an ultraviolet excess relative to older main-sequence stars.

Follow-up spectroscopy of a partial sample of these candidates suggests five new members of Taurus, with 8-20 expected from additional observations, and five new members of Upper Scorpius, with three to six expected from additional observations.
