Scientific paper

Dramatic optical outbursts, which signal the onset of rapid and dramatic accretion onto pre-main sequence stars through their disks, cannot be predicted; however, our previous CXO campaign to study the outburst source V1647 Ori demonstrates that studies of such stars made with CXO beginning immediately after outburst can dramatically increase our knowledge about how and why such stars undergo outbursts and accrete mass. We therefore propose a target of opportunity campaign to observe any such stars discovered during Cycle 9. We will use ACIS-S, to enable us to carry out 20ks - 30 ks imaging spectroscopy observations, spaced by intervals of two and later three months, beginning immediately after discovery and continuing through the end of Cycle 9.
