We present fundamental parameters for 110 canonical K- & M-type (1.3$-$0.13$M_odot$) Taurus-Auriga young stellar objects (YSOs). The analysis produces a simultaneous determination of effective temperature ($T_{rm eff}$), surface gravity ($log$ g), magnetic field strength (B), and projected rotational velocity ($v sin i$). Our method employed synthetic spectra and high-resolution (R$sim$45,000) near-infrared spectra taken with the Immersion GRating INfrared Spectrometer (IGRINS) to fit specific K-band spectral regions most sensitive to those parameters. The use of these high-resolution spectra reduces the influence of distance uncertainties, reddening, and non-photospheric continuum emission on the parameter determinations. The median total (fit + systematic) uncertainties were 170 K, 0.28 dex, 0.60 kG, 2.5 km s$^{-1}$ for $T_{rm eff}$, $log$ g, B, and $v sin i$, respectively. We determined B for 41 Taurus YSOs (upper limits for the remainder) and find systematic offsets (lower $T_{rm eff}$, higher $log$ g and $v sin i$) in parameters when B is measurable but not considered in the fit. The average $log$ g for the Class II and Class III objects differs by 0.23$pm$0.05dex, which is consistent with Class III objects being the more evolved members of the star-forming region. However, the dispersion in $log$ g is greater than the uncertainties, which highlights how the YSO classification correlates with age ($log$ g), yet there are exceptionally young (lower $log$ g) Class III YSOs and relatively old (higher $log$ g) Class II YSOs with unexplained evolutionary histories. The spectra from this work are provided in an online repository along with TW Hydrae Association (TWA) comparison objects and the model grid used in our analysis.

The projected stellar rotational velocity ($v sin i$) is critical for our understanding of processes related to the evolution of angular momentum in pre-main sequence stars. We present $v sin i$ measurements of high-resolution infrared and optical sp
ectroscopy for 70 pre-main sequence stars in the Taurus-Auriga star-forming region, in addition to effective temperatures measured from line-depth ratios, and stellar rotation periods determined from optical photometry. From the literature, we identified the stars in our sample that show evidence of residing in circumstellar disks or multiple systems. The comparison of infrared $v sin i$ measurements calculated using two techniques shows a residual scatter of $sim$ 1.8 km s$^{-1}$, defining a typical error floor for the $v sin i$ of pre-main sequence stars from infrared spectra. A comparison of the $v sin i$ distributions of stars with and without companions shows that binaries/multiples typically have a higher measured $v sin i$, which may be caused by contamination by companion lines, shorter disk lifetimes in binary systems, or tidal interactions in hierarchical triples. A comparison of optical and infrared $v sin i$ values shows no significant difference regardless of whether the star has a disk or not, indicating that CO contamination from the disk does not impact $v sin i$ measurements above the typical $sim$ 1.8 km s$^{-1}$ error floor of our measurements. Finally, we observe a lack of a correlation between the $v sin i$, presence of a disk, and H-R diagram position, which indicates a complex interplay between stellar rotation and evolution of pre-main sequence stars.
We present infrared photometry obtained with the IRAC camera on the Spitzer Space Telescope of a sample of 82 pre-main sequence stars and brown dwarfs in the Taurus star-forming region. We find a clear separation in some IRAC color-color diagrams bet
ween objects with and without disks. A few ``transition objects are noted, which correspond to systems in which the inner disk has been evacuated of small dust. Separating pure disk systems from objects with remnant protostellar envelopes is more difficult at IRAC wavelengths, especially for objects with infall at low rates and large angular momenta. Our results generally confirm the IRAC color classification scheme used in previous papers by Allen et al. and Megeath et al. to distinguish between protostars, T Tauri stars with disks, and young stars without (inner) disks. The observed IRAC colors are in good agreement with recent improved disk models, and in general accord with models for protostellar envelopes derived from analyzing a larger wavelength region. We also comment on a few Taurus objects of special interest. Our results should be useful for interpreting IRAC results in other, less well-studied star-forming regions.
This paper describes the analysis of UVES and GIRAFFE spectra acquired by the Gaia-ESO Public Spectroscopic Survey in the fields of young clusters whose population includes pre-main sequence (PMS) stars. Both methods that have been extensively used i
n the past and new ones developed in the contest of the Gaia-ESO survey enterprise are available and used. The internal precision of these quantities is estimated by inter-comparing the results obtained by such different methods, while the accuracy is estimated by comparison with independent external data, like effective temperature and surface gravity derived from angular diameter measurements, on a sample of benchmarks stars. Specific strategies are implemented to deal with fast rotation, accretion signatures, chromospheric activity, and veiling. The analysis carried out on spectra acquired in young clusters fields during the first 18 months of observations, up to June 2013, is presented in preparation of the first release of advanced data products. Stellar parameters obtained with the higher resolution and larger wavelength coverage from UVES are reproduced with comparable accuracy and precision using the smaller wavelength range and lower resolution of the GIRAFFE setup adopted for young stars, which allows us to provide with confidence stellar parameters for the much larger GIRAFFE sample. Precisions are estimated to be $approx$ 120 K r.m.s. in Teff, $approx$0.3 dex r.m.s. in logg, and $approx$0.15 dex r.m.s. in [Fe/H], for both the UVES and GIRAFFE setups.
We analysed archival molecular line data of pre-main sequence (PMS) stars in the Lupus and Taurus star-forming regions obtained with ALMA surveys with an integration time of a few minutes per source. We stacked the data of $^{13}$CO and C$^{18}$O (J
= 2-1 & 3-2) and CN (N = 3-2, J = 7/2-5/2) lines to enhance the signal-to-noise ratios, and measured the stellar masses of 45 out of 67 PMS stars from the Keplerian rotation in their circumstellar disks. The measured dynamical stellar masses were compared to the stellar masses estimated from the spectroscopic measurements with seven different stellar evolutionary models. We found that the magnetic model of Feiden (2016) provides the best estimate of the stellar masses in the mass range of $0.6~M_{odot}leq M_{star} leq 1.3~M_{odot}$ with a deviation of $<$0.7$sigma$ from the dynamical masses, while all the other models underestimate the stellar masses in this mass range by 20% to 40%. In the mass range of $<0.6~M_{odot}$, the stellar masses estimated with the magnetic model of Feiden (2016) have a larger deviation ($>2sigma$) from the dynamical masses, and other, non-magnetic stellar evolutionary models of Siess et al. (2000), Baraffe et al. (2015) and Feiden (2016) show better agreements with the dynamical masses with the deviations of 1.4$sigma$ to 1.6$sigma$. Our results show the mass dependence of the accuracy of these stellar evolutionary models.
We present the results of a multiplicity survey of 212 T Tauri stars in the Chamaeleon I and Taurus-Auriga star-forming regions, based on high-resolution spectra from the Magellan Clay 6.5 m telescope. From these data, we achieved a typical radial ve
locity precision of ~80 m/s with slower rotators yielding better precision, in general. For 174 of these stars, we obtained multi-epoch data with sufficient time baselines to identify binaries based on radial velocity variations. We identified eight close binaries and four close triples, of which three and two, respectively, are new discoveries. The spectroscopic multiplicity fractions we find for Cha I (7%) and Tau-Aur (6%) are similar to each other, and to the results of field star surveys in the same mass and period regime. However, unlike the results from imaging surveys, the frequency of systems with close companions in our sample is not seen to depend on primary mass. Additionally, we do not find a strong correlation between accretion and close multiplicity. This implies that close companions are not likely the main source of the accretion shut down observed in weak-lined T Tauri stars. Our results also suggest that sufficient radial velocity precision can be achieved for at least a subset of slowly rotating young stars to search for hot Jupiter planets.
