Abstract
AbstractThe intermediate mass Herbig Ae/Be stars are young stars approaching the Main Sequence and are key to understanding the differences in formation mechanisms between magnetic low mass stars and non-magnetic high mass stars. A large fraction of known Herbig Ae/Be stars have TGAS parallaxes, which were used to derive luminosities and place 107 of these objects in the HR diagram, increasing the number of objects using directly determined parallaxes by a factor of 5. We also studied the characteristics of the infrared excesses of this set of Herbig Ae/Be stars and we linked our results to an evolutionary analysis.
