Book Synopsis An Ecological Case Study of Low-mass Star Formation in Taurus by : Jonathan Jay Swift
Book excerpt: Roughly 35 pre-main sequence stars comprise the L1551 association which has a spread in mass ∼0.1--1.5 M⊙ and a spread in age of more than 6 times the dynamical time of the present day cloud. The older stars are more spatially dispersed and may be slightly more massive than the recently formed stars.
