Stellar accretion plays an important role in the early stages of stellar evolution, particularly in Classical T Tauri Stars (CTTSs). Accretion of a CTTS can be related to different physical parameters such as effective temperature…

Interpreting the short-timescale variability of the accreting, young, low-mass stars known as Classical T Tauri stars remains an open task. Month-long, continuous light curves from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (\textit{TESS})…

We present low resolution (R approximately 250) spectroscopy in the near-IR (0.8 to 2.5um) of the EXor variables. These are the initial results (obtained during the period 2007-2008) from a long term photometric and spectroscopic program…

In this study I present new K and L$'$-band infrared photometry and 2-4$\mu$m spectra of ten Class I and flat spectrum stars forming within the Taurus dark cloud complex. Nine sources have H$_2$ {\it v}=0-1 S(1) emission, and some show…
