Title A name given to the resource Identifying the population of T-Tauri stars in Taurus: UVoptical synergy Subject The topic of the resource Gaia; stars: HertzsprungRussell and CM diagrams; stars: kinematics and dynamics; stars: pre-main sequence Description An account of the resource With the third data release of the Gaia mission, Gaia DR3 with its precise photometry and astrometry, it is now possible to study the behavior of stars at a scale never seen before. In this paper, we developed new criteria to identify T-Tauri stars (TTS) candidates using UV and optical color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) by combining the GALEX and Gaia surveys. We found 19 TTS candidates and five of them are newly identified TTS in the Taurus molecular cloud (TMC), not cataloged before as TMC members. For some of the TTS candidates, we also obtained optical spectra from several Indian telescopes. We also present the analysis of distance and proper motion of young stars in the Taurus using data from Gaia DR3. We found that the stars in Taurus show a bimodal distribution with distance, having peaks at 130.17-1.241.31 pc and 156.25-5.001.86 pc. The reason for this bimodality, we think, is due to the fact that different clouds in the TMC region are at different distances. We further showed that the two populations have similar ages and proper motion distribution. Using the Gaia DR3 CMD, we showed that the age of Taurus is consistent with 1Myr. 2023, Indian Academy of Sciences.
