Abstract:
A review of star formation in the Rho Ophiuchi molecular complex is
presented, with particular emphasis on studies of the main cloud,
L1688, since 1991. Recent photometric and parallax measurements of
stars in the Upper Scorpius subgroup of the Sco-Cen OB association
suggest a distance for the cloud between 120 and 140 parsecs. Star
formation is ongoing in the dense cores of L1688 with a median age for
young stellar objects of 0.3Myr. The surface population appears to
have a median age of 2-5Myr and merges with low mass stars in the
Upper Scorpius subgroup. Making use of the most recent X-ray and
infrared photometric surveys and spectroscopic surveys of L1688, we
compile a list of over 300 association members with counterparts in
the 2MASS catalog. Membership criteria, such as lithium absorption,
X-ray emission, and infrared excess, cover the full range of
evolutionary states for young stellar objects. Spectral energy
distributions are classified for many association members using
infrared photometry obtained from the Spitzer Space Telescope.
