Poster: An all-sky catalogue of variable Young Stellar Objects seen by Gaia

The most recent Gaia data release (DR3) provides information on an order of magnitude more variable sources than Gaia DR2 in 2018. Among the published additional variability classes is the class of Young Stellar Objects (YSO). We present an extensive work of validation and describe the YSO catalogue in details.

Since the beginning of the last decade the analysis of huge amounts of data is a new challenge that researchers in general have to cope with. This is also true for astronomers and luckily the number of infrared facilities and the amount of data collected by them increased several order of magnitudes, leading us to new discoveries through data mining and knowledge discovery in databases using modern statistical methods, supervised and unsupervised machine learning.

Machine Learning methods for recognition and classification of Young Stellar Objects – Ilknur Gezer

We are living in the big data age and the analysis of huge amounts of data is a new challenge for researchers. This is especially true for astronomers. The number of infrared facilities and the amount of collected data increased several order of magnitudes in the last decade. Increasing data leading us to new discoveries …

ORION star formation complex poster

Our current classification scheme for young stellar objects (YSOs) was possible thanks to the advent of the first space-based infrared sky surveys more than 30 years ago. As illustrated in Figure 1, the Classes 0 to III – proposed by Lada (1987, IAUS, 115, 1) and André et al. (1993 ApJ, 206,

COSPAR 44th Scientific Assembly: Star Formation with Space-borne Infrared Facilities – the Era of JWST

It is a great opportunity to organize  in the context of NEMESIS a scientific event on the first and the expected science results with JWST in the context of the 44th COSPAR science assembly in Athens. Almost 40 years since the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) completed the first, full-sky survey, a succession of infrared space-born …
