Circumstellar Disks in the Outer Galaxy: the Star-Forming Region NGC 1893 (2008)
Caramazza, M., Micela, G., Prisinzano, L., Rebull, L., Sciortino, S., Stauffer, J. R.
It is still debated whether star formation process depends on environment. In particular it is yet unclear whether star formation in the outer Galaxy, where the environmental conditions are,...

X-ray properties of protostars in the Orion Nebula (2008)
Prisinzano, L., Micela, G., Flaccomio, E., Stauffer, J. R., Megeath, T., Rebull, L., ...
The origin and evolution of the X-ray emission in very young stellar objects (YSOs) are not yet well understood because it is very hard to observe YSOs in the protostellar phase. Using COUP data, we...

We present UBVRI photometry of the open cluster NGC 2422 (age 10 yr) down to a limiting magnitude V ' 19. These data are used to derive the Luminosity and Mass Functions and to study the cluster...
VLT/Flames observations of the star forming region NGC 6530 (2006)
Prisinzano, L., Damiani, F., Micela, G., Pillitteri, I.
Mechanisms regulating the evolution of pre-main sequence stars can be understood by studying stellar properties such as rotation, disk accretion, internal mixing and binarity. To investigate such...
Guarcello, M. G., Prisinzano, L., Micela, G., Damiani, F., Peres, G., Sciortino, S.
Context: the observation of young stars with circumstellar disks suggests that the disks are dissipated, starting from the inner region, by the radiation of the central star and eventually by the...
Sestito, P., Bragaglia, A., Randich, S., Carretta, E., Prisinzano, L., Tosi, M.
We obtained high-resolution UVES/FLAMES observations of a sample of nine old open clusters spanning a wide range of ages and Galactocentric radii. The goal of the project is to investigate the radial...
