The sigma Orionis cluster is a young association evolving under the disruptive influence of its massive O-star namesake. We are analysing this cluster as part of a program to characterise the influence of O-stars on the early stages of stellar evolut...

The Li Overabundance of J37: Diffusion or Accretion? (2004)
Journal Article
F. Ashwell, J., Jeffries, R. D., Smalley, B., P. Deliyannis, C., Steinhauer, A., & R. King, J. (2004). The Li Overabundance of J37: Diffusion or Accretion?. Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2004(IAUS224), https://doi.org/10.1017/S1743921305009385

In September 2002 the discovery of a super Li-rich F-dwarf (J37) in NGC 6633, an iron poor analogue of the better studied Hyades and Praecepe open clusters, was announced. This unique star was thought to be the smoking gun for the action of diffusion... Read More about The Li Overabundance of J37: Diffusion or Accretion?.

An L'-band survey for circumstellar discs around low-mass stars in the young σ Orionis cluster (2004)
Journal Article
Jeffries, R., Oliveira, J., & Van Loon, J. (2004). An L'-band survey for circumstellar discs around low-mass stars in the young σ Orionis cluster. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 347(4), 1327 -1336. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2004.07315.x

We present new K- and L'-band imaging of a representative sample of members of the young 3-5 Myr old sigma Orionis cluster. We identified objects with (K-L') excess by analysing colour-colour diagrams and comparing the observations with empirical mai...
