Abstract

High-precision radial-velocity studies of four star-forming regions: λ Orionis, NGC 2264, the Trapezium cluster and Taurus-Auriga, are completed or in process (in collaboration with Latham, Marschall and Hartmann). Single-order (∼ 50 Å, central wavelength 5200 Å) echelle spectra have been obtained for late-type pre-main sequence stars. Measurement errors of 0.7 – 1.5 km/sec are typical, although some stars do not permit any radial-velocity measurement due to stellar rotation or spectral peculiarities.
