Infrared spectroscopy of T Tauri stars
The hydrogen-sodium diagnostic method is applied to a sample of 134 TTauri stars of low luminosity, and the luminosity of Pa-beta, Br-gamma,and Br-alpha are measured. This method permits the physical conditionsin the inner regions of winds to be determined with useful accuracy. Theresults show that a restricted range of T(g), between 5000 and 7000 K,and of mass loss rate, between 10 to the -8th and 10 to the -7th solarmass/yr, is populated by several luminous T Tauri stars. It seems likelythat the ejection of cold and neutral atomic winds represents a commonphase of the premain sequence evolution of low-mass stars.
