Abstract:
We present the results of a 9.3-deg2 infrared (ZYJHK) survey in the
Upper Scorpius association extracted from the UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky
Survey (UKIDSS) Galactic Cluster Survey Early Data Release (Dye et
al., 2006MNRAS.372.1227D 2006MNRAS.372.1227D). We have selected a total of 112 candidates
from the (Z-J, Z) colour-magnitude diagram over the Z=12.5-20.5
magnitude range, corresponding to M=0.25-0.01M☉ at an age of
5Myr and a distance of 145pc. Additional photometry in J and K filters
revealed most of them as reddened stars, leaving 32 possible members.
Among them, 15 have proper motion consistent with higher-mass members
from Hipparcos and optical spectra with strong Hα in emission
and weak gravity features. We have also extracted two lower-mass
candidate members for which no optical spectra are in hand. Three
members exhibit strong Hα equivalent widths (>20Å),
suggesting that they could still undergo accretion, whereas two
other dwarfs show signs of chromospheric activity. The likelihood
of the binarity of a couple of new stellar and substellar members
is discussed as well.
