Synthesis of the Beryllium 3131A Spectral Region (2005)
Journal Article
Ashwell, J., F. Ashwell, J., Jeffries, R., D. Jeffries, R., & Smalley, B. Synthesis of the Beryllium 3131A Spectral Region. Manuscript submitted for publication

The Beryllium spectral region of the Sun, Procyon and 4 stars in the open cluster NGC6633 up to Teff = 7500K have been synthesised using ATLAS9 model atmospheres and the MOOG spectral synthesis program. The line list used for these syntheses has bee... Read More about Synthesis of the Beryllium 3131A Spectral Region.

The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models (2005)
Journal Article
Jeffries, R. D., & Oliveira, J. M. (2005). The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 358(1), 13 -29. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2005.08820.x

Intermediate resolution spectroscopy from the ESO Very Large Telescope is analysed for 63 photometrically selected low-mass (0.08-0.30 Msun) candidates of the open cluster NGC 2547. We have confirmed membership for most of these stars using radial ve... Read More about The lithium depletion boundary in NGC 2547 as a test of pre-main-sequence evolutionary models.

Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611 (2005)
Journal Article
Oliveira, J., Jeffries, R., Th. van Loon, J., Littlefair, S., & Naylor, T. (2005). Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 358(1), L21-L24. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1745-3933.2005.00020.x

We have performed IZJHKL' observations in NGC 6611, the young cluster that ionises the Eagle Nebula. We have discovered a rich pre-main sequence concentrated around the O-stars in the cluster. As measured by their L'-band excesses, at least 58% +/- 5... Read More about Circumstellar discs around solar-mass stars in NGC 6611.

Membership, binarity and accretion among very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs of the s Orionis cluster (2005)
Journal Article
Kenyon, M., Jeffries, R., Naylor, T., Oliveira, J., & Maxted, P. (2005). Membership, binarity and accretion among very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs of the s Orionis cluster. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 356(1), 89 -106. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2004.08455.x

Intermediate resolution (R=7000) spectroscopy is presented for 76 photometrically selected very low mass (0.04<M<0.3M_{sun}) candidate members of the Sigma Orionis cluster. More than two thirds appear to be genuine cluster members on the basis of Li...
