Scientific paper

We present a multi wavelength study of the young stellar cluster IC 348 making use of new Chandra X-ray observations as well as existing Spitzer infrared data. Overall, 484 X-ray sources were detected of which 271 correspond to known 2MASS or Spitzer IRAC cluster members. We find that classical T Tauri Stars and weak-lined T Tauri Stars show similar mean X-ray luminosities. Transitional disk X-ray luminosities are investigated and compared to transitional disks in other young clusters. We report the detection of 22 hard X-ray photons from the vicinity of HH211's NW jet and possible scenarios for their origin are discussed. This work is supported in part by the NSF REU and DOD ASSURE programs
under NSF grant no. 0754568 and by the Smithsonian Institution.
