Age-Dating of Young Stars and Stellar Systems
... The central theme of this conference is the chronometry of stellar systems. Applied to very young systems, observations of the UV (∼1500 Å) and far-UV (< 912 Å) and a theoretical calibration of the age vs. UV luminosity are required. The age vs. optical-luminosity relation is highly degenerate due ...
