Star Formation, Pre-Main Sequence Stars

Scientific paper

We are in the process of building two twin 16.25 inch robotic telescopes, one to be erected on Haleakala in Hawaii, the other on Cerro Tololo in Chile. The two telescopes will carry out the Variable Young Stars Optical Survey (VYSOS) during which star forming regions along the entire Galactic plane will be monitored for many years to come. The field of view will be 27 × 40 arcmin, the pixel scale 0.77'', and the limiting magnitude around 19 mag. The resulting database will provide the first systematic, synoptic view of early stellar evolution.
