Aims: This is the first paper in a series dedicated to investigating the kinematic properties of nearby associations of young stellar objects. Here we study the Taurus-Auriga association, with the primary objective of deriving kinematic…
The goal of this paper is to increase the membership list of the Chamaeleon star forming region and the $\epsilon$ Cha moving group, in particular for low-mass stars and substellar objects. We extended the search region significantly beyond…
The Tucana-Horologium association is one of the closest young stellar groups to the Sun and despite the close proximity its age is still debated in the literature. We take advantage of the state-of-the-art astrometry delivered by the third…
We combine photometric metallicities with astrometry from Gaia DR3 to examine the chemodynamic structure of ~250,000 K dwarfs in the Solar Neighborhood (SN). In kinematics, we observe ridges/clumps of "kinematic groups", like studies of…
The orbital properties of stars in the disk are signatures of their formation, but they are also expected to change over time due to the dynamical evolution of the Galaxy. Stellar orbits can be quantified by three dynamical actions, J_r,…
The Ursa Major Moving Group (UMa) is one of the closest stellar associations, yet its age has remained controversial, with published estimates ranging from 200 Myr to 1 Gyr. We present a comprehensive age analysis using the largest sample…
The variations of kinematic parameters with age are considered for a sample of 15 402 thin-disk O--F stars with accurate $\alpha$, $\delta$, $\mu$, and $\pi>3$ mas from the Hipparcos catalogue and radial velocities from the PCRV catalogue.…
Context. Most stars form in clusters or associations but only a small number of these groups are expected to remain bound for longer than a few Myr. Once star formation has ended and the molecular gas around young stellar objects has been…
The magnetic activity of the Sun becomes stronger and weaker over roughly an 11 year cycle, modulating the radiation and charged particle environment experienced by the Earth as "space weather". Decades of observations from the Mount Wilson…
We have estimated the age of the young moving group TW Hydrae Association, a cohort of a few dozen stars and brown dwarfs located near the Sun which share the same kinematic properties and, presumably, the same origin and age. The…
Our goal is to determine the rotational and magnetic-related activity properties of stars at different stages of evolution. We have focussed our attention on 6 young loose stellar associations within 100 pc and ages in the range 8-70 Myr:…
The stellar kinematics of the Galactic disk are main factors for constraining disk formation and evolution processes in the Milky Way (MW) Galaxy. In this paper we investigate a statistical relation between stellar Mass, Age and Velocity…
(abridged) We want to provide further evidence of the origin of the proposed stellar members of Chamaeleon and to identify interlopers from the foreground \epsilon Cha and \eta Cha associations. To this aim, we compile lists of…
The existence of high-$\alpha$ stars with inferred ages < 6 Gyr has been confirmed recently with large spectroscopic and photometric surveys. However, stellar mergers or binary interactions can induce properties associated with young ages,…
Gaia DR3 provides radial velocities for 33 million stars and spectroscopically derived atmospheric parameters for more than five million targets. When combined with the astrometric data, these allow us to derive orbital and stellar…
[Abridged] We present two deep surveys of circumstellar discs around solar-type stars at different ages carried out at 350 micron with the CSO and at 1.2 mm with the IRAM 30-m telescope. The aim of this study is to understand the evolution…
Context: Chamaeleon is the southernmost low-mass star-forming complex within 200 pc from the Sun. Its stellar population has been extensively studied in the past, but the current census of the stellar content is not complete yet and…
We have studied the kinematic properties of young pre-main-sequence stars. We have selected these stars based on data from the Gaia DR2 catalogue by invoking a number of photometric infrared surveys. Using 4564 stars with parallax errors…
The very young brown dwarf candidate ChaHa8 was recently discovered to have a close (~1AU) companion by means of radial velocity monitoring. We present additional radial velocity data obtained with UVES/VLT between 2007 and 2010, which…
We combine Gaia DR3 5-parameter astrometry with calibrated radial velocities for 23 nearby (<1 kpc) young (<60 Myr) clusters, with membership lists from Cantat-Gaudin et al. (2020). We characterise the plane-of-sky structure of the clusters…
