TL;DR
This study provides radial velocities and youth diagnostics for 336 nearby low-mass stars, confirming 78 as members of young moving groups, identifying new members, and refining the ages of stellar associations using Gaia data.
Contribution
It offers the first comprehensive kinematic and youth assessment for a large sample of candidate young low-mass stars, including new group members and refined ages of associations.
Findings
78 stars confirmed as members of 10 young moving groups
15 new or reclassified group members identified
Carina association found to be younger (~22 Myr) than previously thought
Abstract
Young, low-mass stars in the solar neighborhood are vital for completing the mass function for nearby, young coeval groups, establishing a more complete census for evolutionary studies, and providing targets for direct-imaging exoplanet and/or disk studies. We present properties derived from high-resolution optical spectra for 336 candidate young nearby, low-mass stars. These include measurements of radial velocities and age diagnostics such as H and Li 6707 equivalent widths. Combining our radial velocities with astrometry from Gaia DR2, we provide full 3D kinematics for the entire sample. We combine the measured spectroscopic youth information with additional age diagnostics (e.g., X-ray and UV fluxes, CMD positions) and kinematics to evaluate potential membership in nearby, young moving groups and associations. We identify 78 objects in our sample as bonafide members…

Abstract
Young, low-mass stars in the solar neighborhood are vital for completing the mass function for nearby, young coeval groups, establishing a more complete census for evolutionary studies, and providing targets for direct-imaging exoplanet and/or disk studies. We present properties derived from high-resolution optical spectra for 336 candidate young nearby, low-mass stars. These include measurements of radial velocities and age diagnostics such as H and Li 6707 equivalent widths. Combining our radial velocities with astrometry from Gaia DR2, we provide full 3D kinematics for the entire sample. We combine the measured spectroscopic youth information with additional age diagnostics (e.g., X-ray and UV fluxes, CMD positions) and kinematics to evaluate potential membership in nearby, young moving groups and associations. We identify 77 objects in our sample as bonafide members of 10 different moving groups, 14 of which are completely new members or have had their group membership reassigned. We also reject 46 previously proposed candidate moving group members. Furthermore, we have newly identified or confirmed the youth of numerous additional stars that do not belong to any currently known group, and find 69 co-moving systems using Gaia DR2 astrometry. We also find evidence that the Carina association is younger than previously thought, with an age similar to the Pictoris moving group (22 Myr).

1 Introduction
The discovery of young stars (300 Myr) in the neighborhood of the Sun (100 pc) has allowed for significant advances in several areas of astrophysics. Because of their age and proximity, such stars are optimal targets for directly detecting low-mass planetary companions (e.g., Chauvin et al. 2004, 2005, Marois et al. 2008, 2010, Lagrange et al. 2010, Bowler et al. 2013, 2017, Naud et al. 2014, Chauvin et al. 2017, Dupuy et al. 2018), in-depth studies of circumstellar disks (e.g., Su et al. 2006, Rebull et al. 2008, Zuckerman et al. 2011, Riviere-Marichalar et al. 2014, Rodriguez et al. 2015, Binks & Jeffries 2017, Meng et al. 2017), mass function investigations (e.g., Kraus et al. 2014, Shkolnik et al. 2017, Gagné et al. 2017a), and studies of various evolutionary properties ranging from rotation and activity (e.g., Montes et al. 2001 de la Reza & Pinzón 2004, Malo et al. 2014, Shkolnik & Barman 2014, Schneider & Shkolnik 2018) to chemical abundances (e.g., Mentuch et al. 2008, da Silva et al. 2009, Viana Almeida et al. 2009, Žerjal et al. 2019) to multiplicity (e.g, Janson et al. 2014, Shan et al. 2017) to empirical isochrones (e.g, Liu et al. 2016).
Nearby, young moving groups are coeval collections of stars that share the same age and similar space motions (e.g., Kastner et al. 1997). Confirming membership to these kinematically linked groups requires knowledge of an object’s distance, proper motion, radial velocity, and age. While proper motions have typically been available from numerous all-sky surveys, accurate distances and radial velocities have been more difficult to acquire as they require dedicated observations. With the second data release of the Gaia mission (hereafter Gaia DR2; Gaia Collaboration et al. 2016, 2018), parallaxes are now readily available for the vast majority of nearby, stellar moving group members. Such data is being used to identify new moving group members as well as completely new moving groups (e.g., Faherty et al. 2018, Gagné et al. 2018d). In many instances, the only pieces of information now missing to confirm a potential moving group member are its radial velocity and youth. The Gaia mission will eventually include radial velocities for 150 million stars (Soubiran et al., 2018), and the DR2 release includes radial velocities for over 7 million bright stars, though with increasing uncertainties at the faint end (2 km s*-1*; Gaia Collaboration et al. 2018). In this third installment of the All-sky Co-moving Recovery Of Nearby Young Members (ACRONYM) series (Kraus et al. 2014, Shkolnik et al. 2017), we present radial velocities and youth characteristics for 336 nearby, low-mass stars that are suspected to be young in order to identify new, and confirm previously proposed, moving group members.
2 Observations
Nearby young candidates were observed with the goal of identifying young, nearby, low-mass stars. These include the list of X-ray active M dwarfs from the NStars catalog (Reid et al., 2003, 2004) and from Riaz et al. (2006), kinematic moving group candidates from Malo et al. (2013), and UV-active M dwarfs using the methods outlined in Shkolnik et al. (2011). For X-ray active M dwarfs, we required the log of the X-ray flux () to 2MASS -band flux () to be greater than –2.5, a value chosen to be comparable to members of the Pleiades (Shkolnik et al., 2009). For UV-active M dwarf candidates, we required 3 detections in both the GALEX FUV and NUV bands, and required the FUV and NUV to 2MASS -band flux ratios to be greater than 10*-5* and 10*-4*, respectively (Shkolnik et al., 2011). High resolution optical spectra were acquired for all targets to measure radial velocities and youth diagnostics. Radial velocity standards were observed each night in order to determine radial velocities of our target stars. Care was taken to observe radial velocity standards with similar spectral types as the target sample. All observations are summarized in Table 1.
2.1 Keck/HIRES
Fifty-two targets were observed with the High Resolution Echelle Spectrometer (HIRES; Vogt et al. 1994) on the Keck I telescope. The observing strategy and data reduction routine are outlined in Shkolnik et al. (2009, 2017), which we briefly summarize here. All observations were taken with the 0861 slit, resulting in a spectral resolution of /\Delta$$\lambda 58,000 covering a wavelength range of 4900–9300 Å. The GG475 filter was utilized with the red cross-disperser in order to maximize the throughput at the longest wavelengths (where M dwarfs emit their peak emission). All data reduction was accomplished using the facility pipeline MAKEE.
2.2 CFHT/ESPaDOnS
We observed 15 targets with the Echelle SpectroPolarimatric Device for the Observation of Stars (ESPaDOnS; Donati et al. 2006) on the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT). The observing strategy and data reduction routine are outlined in Shkolnik et al. (2009), which we briefly summarize here. ESPaDOnS covers a wavelength range of 3700–10400 Å, with a spectral resolution of /\Delta$$\lambda 68,000. Data reduction was achieved using the fully automated reduction package Libre ESpRIT (Donati et al., 2007).
2.3 Magellan/MIKE
The Magellan Inamori Kyocera Echelle (MIKE) optical spectrograph located on the Clay telescope at the Magellan Observatory was used to characterize 122 of our targets. The observing strategy and data reduction routine are outlined in Shkolnik et al. (2011, 2017), which we briefly summarize here. We used the 05 slit with for all MIKE observations, which gives a spectral resolution of /\Delta$$\lambda 35,000 over the wavelength range 4900–10000 Å. All MIKE data were reduced using the CarPy pipeline (Kelson et al., 2000; Kelson, 2003).
2.4 Du Pont/Echelle
Two-hundred and twenty-nine targets were observed with the Echelle Spectrograph on the 2.5 m Irenee Du Pont Telescope. All observations were taken with a 10 slit, resulting in a resolution of /\Delta$$\lambda 32,000 covering the 4000–9000 Å wavelength range. Standard IRAF echelle routines were used to reduce the data.

3 Analysis
3.1 Spectral Types
Spectral types are taken from the literature, with references given in Table 2. For those objects without an available spectral type, we measure the type using the TiO5 index defined in Reid et al. (1995). The spectral type distribution of the entire sample is shown in Figure 1.
3.2 Radial Velocities
One of the main objectives of this work is to measure radial velocities for potentially young, nearby, low mass stars. For each of our high-resolution spectra, we isolate the reddest orders (7000 Å) for radial velocity measurements as that is where the signal to noise ratio (S/N) is highest for low mass stars. Each order was cross-correlated with radial velocity standards of similar spectral type using the fxcor routine from IRAF. Radial velocities were measured by finding the Gaussian peak of the cross-correlation function in each order. We average the radial velocities of all orders to determine a final value, and use the standard deviation of the radial velocity from each order as the measurement uncertainty. All measured radial velocities are given in Table 1. The median uncertainty for our radial velocity measurements is 0.7 km s*-1*. Objects found to be likely spectroscopic binaries via multiple resolved peaks in the resulting cross-correlations functions are noted in Table 1 and will be discussed further in a future publication.
In Table 2, we combine our radial velocity measurements with astrometry from Gaia DR2 (Gaia Collaboration et al., 2018) to calculate full XYZUVW kinematics for each object in our sample. For objects with more than one radial velocity measurement, we take the weighted average. For some objects, astrometry from Gaia DR2 was unavailable. In these instances, we filled in astrometry from other sources, as described in the Table 2 astrometry notes.
\startlongtable
We searched the literature for previously measured radial velocities for our targets. We found 540 individual radial velocity measurements for 241 of the targets in our sample. Thus, 91 of our targets have radial velocities presented for the first time. In many cases where a previously measured radial velocity is available, our measurement is of significantly higher precision. All previously measured radial velocities are given in Table 3. Excluding spectroscopic binaries noted in Table 1, the median difference (difference divided by combined uncertainty) for all previously measured radial velocities compared to our measurements is 2.45. Note that cases with large radial velocity differences may not necessarily indicate an erroneous measurement, as they could instead be evidence of spectroscopic binarity.
Three catalogs constituted more than half of the previously reported radial velocities of our targets; Malo et al. (2014), the 5th data release of the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE; Kunder et al. 2017), and Gaia DR2 (Gaia Collaboration et al., 2018). The number of objects in common with Gaia DR2 are 99, with a median difference of 2.06. The number of objects that also have radial velocities in RAVE is 93, with a median difference of 3.91. The number of objects in common with Malo et al. (2014) is 74, with a median difference of 0.58. A comparison of our measured radial velocities with those from Gaia DR2, RAVE, and Malo et al. (2014) is shown in Figure 2. The median radial velocity uncertainties for Gaia DR2, RAVE, and Malo et al. (2014) measurements are 1.8 km s*-1*, 3.9 km s*-1*, and 0.5 km s*-1*, respectively.
3.3 Age Diagnostics
For each object in our sample, we measure H and Li 6707 equivalent widths and report the values in Table 2. The detection limit for Li equivalent widths is taken to be 0.05 Å following Shkolnik et al. (2009). Because we aimed for the S/N for each observed spectrum, and the resolutions are similar for each spectrograph, this limit applies to all observations. We also gathered X-ray data from ROSAT (Truemper, 1982) using the Second ROSAT all-sky survey (2RXS; Boller et al. 2016). Each detection was converted to an X-ray flux using equations (5) and (6) from Riaz et al. (2006), which was then converted to an X-ray luminosity with the following equation:
[TABLE]
which comes from NASA’s High Energy Astrophysics Science Archive Research Center (HEASARC)111https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/W3Browse/all/rassdsstar.html.
We also include FUV and NUV photometry from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX), as young (300 Myr) moving group members have been shown to have higher UV flux levels than field objects in the same mass range (e.g., Rodriguez et al. 2011, Shkolnik et al. 2011, Schneider & Shkolnik 2018).
We also provide Gaia DR2 photometry for the entire sample in Table 2, which is used to construct color-magnitude diagrams in subsequent sections. 2MASS JHK photometry is also provided for convenience.
4 Discussion
4.1 Objects with Ongoing Accretion
Strong H emission can signify ongoing accretion on low-mass stars. We identify objects that are potentially accreting using the empirical accretion boundary for H equivalent widths presented in Barrado y Navascués & Martín (2003). Note that the empirical relation in Barrado y Navascués & Martín (2003) is only applicable for objects with spectral types earlier than M5.5. Figure 3 shows the H measurements for our entire sample sorted by spectral type. Only one object in our sample with a spectral type later than M5.5 shows strong H absorption ( -20 Å), the well known flare star DG Phe. Five objects are noted to be above the accretion boundary in the spectral type range K5 to M5.5. However, previous work has shown that the boundary defined in Barrado y Navascués & Martín (2003) does not exclusively identify accretors, as several well known non-accreting flare stars lie above the curve (Shkolnik et al., 2009). Therefore, for any object lying above the Barrado y Navascués & Martín (2003) boundary, we also evaluate the 10%-width defined in White & Basri (2003), which has been shown to better identify accreting objects. White & Basri (2003) define an accretion boundary for the 10%-width of 200 km s*-1* for non-optically veiled stars.
Of the five objects above the Barrado y Navascués & Martín (2003) curve, one object is the known accretor and Pic member V4046 Sgr (2MASS J181410473247344), with a spectral type of K5+K7 for which we measure a 10%-width of 447 km s*-1*. 2MASS 050827292101444 is a second Pic member, confirmed in Section 4.2.3, with a 10%-width of 197 km s*-1*, right at the White & Basri (2003) accretion boundary. 2MASS 054255870718382 (aka V* V909 Ori) is another well-known flare star just beyond the accretion boundary in Figure 3, and with a 10%-width of 241 km s*-1*, is likely accreting. This object is rejected as a potential Columba member in Section 4.2.6., though is likely young based on its position in color-magnitude diagrams and its H emission. 2MASS 08440914-7833457 is a member of the 11 Myr old Cha cluster in Section 4.2.8, and is accreting, with a 10%-width of 212 km s*-1*. 2MASS 060023044401217 is an object reclassified as a 45 Myr old member of the Tucana-Horologium Association (see Section 4.2.10), though has a 10%-width of only 121 km s*-1*, and is thus not likely to be accreting.
4.2 Co-Moving Companions
Co-moving systems are valuable benchmarks for testing formation and evolutionary models because the objects in such systems share many of the same physical parameters, such as age, distance, and composition. The astrometric data from Gaia DR2 allows for a search for co-moving companions to each object in our sample. For each object, we chose a search radius corresponding to 0.1 pc separation at the object’s distance. This separation corresponds to a 50% survivability rate according to Weinberg et al. (1987). However, we note that co-moving systems with much larger separations are known to exist (e.g., Oh et al. 2017) and thus our search radius can be thought of as conservative. The average distance for objects in our sample is 34 pc, which would correspond to a search radius of 10′. Using the appropriate search radii, we investigated for objects with parallaxes within 0.1 pc of each object in our sample.
To ensure objects are co-moving, we first verify that any potential companions have similar parallaxes by requiring \Delta$$D - 3D 1 pc (e.g., Hollands et al. 2018), where \Delta$$D is the difference between measured distances, and D is the combined distance uncertainty for the target and potential companion. We then ensure similar proper motions by requiring \Delta$$\mu/ 0.21, where \Delta$$\mu (\Delta$$\mu_{\alpha} + \Delta$$\mu_{\delta}) (e.g., Dupuy & Liu 2012). Note that this proper motion condition for companionship is valid for proper motions greater than 150 mas yr*-1*. We relax this condition to \Delta$$\mu/ 0.31 for smaller proper motions. Only two systems required this lower proper motion threshold (systems 9 and 29 in Table 4).
A total of 69 co-moving systems were found, and are listed in Table 4. Systems containing multiple objects in our target list are only listed once. Sixty-three of the sixty-nine systems contain a single co-moving companion, while the remaining 6 systems contain 3 or more components. Figure 4 shows color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of all companions using Gaia DR2 parallaxes and photometry. The panels show G, GBP, and GRP photometry(0 = 673, 532, and 797 nm, respectively; Jordi et al. 2010). The figure shows that the spectral types of the companions found to objects in our sample are a mix of earlier and later spectral types, along with a handful of white dwarfs.
\startlongtable
4.3 Moving Group Membership
We evaluate each object for potential moving group membership using the BANYAN tool (Gagné et al., 2018a), which evaluates the membership probabilities by comparing positions to known members of different groups using a Bayesian classifier. BANYAN considers all kinematic information (position, proper motion, parallax, and radial velocity) to compare 6-dimensional XYZUVW coordinates to known groups using multivariate Gaussians. While we evaluate membership in all groups included in BANYAN , potential matches from our sample were found for 10 groups listed in Table 5. Any object with a BANYAN probability of 1% for a particular group was investigated for potential membership. The TW Hya and Scorpius-Centaurus Associations are part of a larger, targeted search for new members by our research group, and will be discussed in a forthcoming separate study.
Note that a kinematic match to a particular group using BANYAN does not guarantee membership because kinematic interlopers with different ages are possible. For all kinematic matches, we also evaluate membership using all available age information gathered in Table 4 to ensure consistency with the age of any matching group. Note that any objects in our list that are already included in the bonafide members of BANYAN are not discussed further. Table 5 summarizes the number of new, confirmed, and rejected members found for all groups. Table 6 provides age and kinematic information for new, confirmed, and reassigned moving group and association members, while Table 7 provides information for all rejected moving group and association members. Notes for each group including comments on individual sources are presented in the following sections.
