摘要: Continuous photometric observations of five young stars obtained by the MOST satellite in 2009 and 2010 Taurus Lupus star formation regions are presented. Using light-curve modelling under assumption internal invariability spots, we small values solar-type differential-rotation parameter (k = 0.0005–0.009) for three spotted weak-line T Tauri stars, V410 Tau, V987 Tau 3-14; another (WTTS), 3-48, data consistent with a rigidly rotating surface 0). Three flares similar rise (4 min 30 s) decay (1 h 45 min) times were detected light curve 3-14. The brightness classical RY continuously decreased over 3 weeks its variable modulation not showing any obvious periodic signal.
