Optical spectroscopy of {rho} Oph stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present the results of optical spectroscopy of 139 stars obtained with the Hydra multiobject spectrograph.
Description
The objects extend over a 1.3{deg}^2^ area surrounding the main cloud of the {rho} Oph complex. The objects were selected from narrowband images to have H{alpha} in emission.
Using the presence of strong H{alpha} emission, lithium absorption, location in the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, or previously reported X-ray emission, we were able to identify 88 objects as young stars associated with the cloud. Strong H{alpha} emission was confirmed in 39 objects with line widths consistent with their origin in magnetospheric accretion columns. Two of the strongest emission-line objects are young, X-ray-emitting brown dwarf candidates with M8 spectral types.

Comparisons of the bolometric luminosities and effective temperatures with theoretical models suggest a median age for this population of 2.1Myr, which is significantly older than the ages derived for objects in the cloud core. It appears that these stars formed contemporaneously with low-mass stars in the Upper Scorpius subgroup, likely triggered by massive stars in the Upper Centaurus subgroup.
