SUMMARY OF SEQUENCE NUMBER 270472
Title: YOUNG STARS IN THE ORION TRAPEZIUM CLUSTER
Observer: FEIGELSON
Subject Category: Normal Stars and WD
Seq: 270472 ObsId: 01522
Long-term Plan bin: 27-Mar-2000
ABSTRACT
The Orion Trapezium cluster is the richest and densent cluster of pre-main sequence stars in the solar neighborhood, and the nearest region of high-mass star forming region. It is a superb laboratory for study of X-ray emission from protostars, classical and weak-lined T Tauri stars. The proposed observation should detect hundreds of stars, dozens of powerful magnetically-induced flares. X-ray emission from embedded protostars and massive OB stars will also be studied. The relationaships between X-ray emission and other stellar properties, and the influence of magnetic activity on star and planet formation, will be investigated.
