Scientific paper

In a recent paper, da Silva et al. (2009), we report results of Li abundance analysis for nine young stellar associations, defined in Torres et al. (2008), from a high-resolution optical spectroscopic survey searching for associations containing young stars (SACY), among optical counterparts of ROSAT All-Sky X-ray sources in the Southern Hemisphere. They have applied a convergence method in the (UVW) velocity space and have determined nine nearby young associations in the sample. As they are young and with different ages, those associations form an interesting laboratory to test the Li depletion theory, as a function of the star age.
