SINFONI K-band observations of IRS54(YLW52)
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Molecular outflows from very low-mass stars (VLMSs) and brown dwarfs have been studied very little.
Description
So far, only a few CO outflows have been observed, allowing us to map the immediate circumstellar environment. We present the first spatially resolved H_2_ emission around IRS54 (YLW52), a ~0.1-0.2M_{sun}_ Class I source.
By means of VLT SINFONI K-band observations, we probed the H2 emission down to the first ~50AU from the source. The molecular emission shows a complex structure delineating a large outflow cavity and an asymmetric molecular jet. Thanks to the detection of several H_2_transitions, we are able to estimate average values along the jet-like structure (from source position to knot D) of Av~28mag, T~2000-3000K, and H_2_column density N(H_2)~1.7x10^17cm^-2.

This allows us to estimate a mass loss rate of ~2x10^-10M_{sun}_/yr for the warm H_2_component . In addition, from the total flux of the Br gamma line, we infer an accretion luminosity and mass accretion rate of 0.64L_{sun}_ and ~3x10^-7M_{sun}_/yr, respectively. The outflow structure is similar to those found in low-mass Class I and CTTS.
However, the Lacc/Lbol ratio is very high (~80%), and the mass accretion rate is about one order of magnitude higher when compared to objects of roughly the same mass, pointing to the young nature of the investigated source.
