The Gaia-ESO Survey: 3D dynamics of young groups and clusters from GES and Gaia EDR3 (2024)
Journal Article
Wright, N. J., Jeffries, R. D., Jackson, R. J., Sacco, G. G., Arnold, B., Franciosini, E., …Worley, C. C. (2024). The Gaia-ESO Survey: 3D dynamics of young groups and clusters from GES and Gaia EDR3. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 533(1), 705–728. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae1806

We present the first large-scale 3D kinematic study of ∼2700 spectroscopically-confirmed young stars (< 20 Myr) in 18 star clusters and OB associations (hereafter groups) from the combination of Gaia astrometry and Gaia-ESO Survey spectroscopy...

Kinematic substructure in star clusters constrains star cluster formation (2024)
Journal Article
Arnold, B., & Wright, N. J. (2024). Kinematic substructure in star clusters constrains star cluster formation. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 531(1), 1191–1202. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae1236

The spatial-kinematic structure of 48 young star clusters and associations is investigated. Moran’s I statistic is used to quantify the degree of kinematic substructure in each region, and the results are compared to those expected assuming the hiera...

Constraining Stellar Rotation at the Zero-age Main Sequence with TESS (2024)
Journal Article
Douglas, S. T., Cargile, P. A., Matt, S. P., Breimann, A. A., Pérez Chávez, J. A., Huang, C. X., …Zhou, G. (2024). Constraining Stellar Rotation at the Zero-age Main Sequence with TESS. Astrophysical Journal, 962(1), Article 16. https://doi.org/10.3847/1538-4357/ad0fe3

The zero-age main sequence (ZAMS) is a critical phase for stellar angular momentum evolution, as stars transition from contraction-dominated spin-up to magnetic wind-dominated spin-down. We present the first robust observational constraints on rotati... Read More about Constraining Stellar Rotation at the Zero-age Main Sequence with TESS.
