Scientific paper

The deepest near-IR variability survey of the ρ Ophiuchi cluster with the WFCAM/UKIRT has been used to uncover a new population of young low mass objects. Evidence for the existence of discs around the new objects has been found when combining data with IRAC/Spitzer observations. A new insight on the frequency and dynamics of discs around low mass YSOs is given, essential for understanding the origin and evolution of circumstellar discs and ultimately the environment for planet formation.
