Simultaneous photometric and spectral analysis of a new outburst of V1686 Cyg

We present an analysis of the optical observations of Herbig AeBe star V1686 Cyg, which is associated with a small isolated star-forming region around HAeBe star BD+40$^{\circ}$4124. We observed this star as a part of our project of young eruptive stars investigation. Observations were held on 2.6m telescope of Byurakan Observatory from 2015 to 2017. For this period we obtained V1686 Cyg direct images and 14 medium- and low-resolution spectra. In the course of observations we noticed that this star underwent a not-typical brightness outburst. After data reduction we found that the full rise and decline of V1686 Cyg brightness had almost 3 magnitudes amplitude and lasted about 3 months. We were also able to trace the changes of the stellar spectrum during the outburst, which are correlated with the photometric variations.

NEAR-IR Spectroscopy of Young Stars in the Braid Nebula Star Formation Region in Cygnus Ob7

We present 1.4 to 2.5 um integral field spectroscopy of 16 stars in the Braid Nebula star formation region in Cygnus OB7. These data forms one aspect of a large-scale multi-wavelength survey aimed at determining an unbiased estimate of the number, mass distribution, and evolutionary state of the young stars within this one square degree area of the previously poorly studied Lynds 1003 molecular cloud. Our new spectroscopic data, when combined with 2MASS near-IR photometry, provide evidence of membership of many of these objects in the regions pre-main sequence population. We discuss both the characteristics of the young stars found in the region and the level of star forming activity present.
