The goal of this proposal is to provide a comprehensive catalog of nearby young stellar objects fully accessible to the astronomical community. At present, data regarding the approximately 10,000 - 30,000 young stellar objects within ~800pc of the Sun are scattered throughout various archives and the published literature. These include stars in young clusters, associations, and molecular clouds, with photometric/spectroscopic data in one or more of the following wavelengths: x-ray, optical, near-infrared, mid-infrared, and sub-millimeter/millimeter. In addition, derived quantities such as stellar parameters, angular momentum indicators, activity measures, circumstellar disk diagnostics, etc. are also available through various resources. The project will provide targeted and flexible access to basic data products, as well as higher level data products that are relevant to young stars through a relational database populated with data from all known or suspected members of the population. The database will also have broad educational value useful to a wide spectrum of users from teachers in the classroom to experienced scientific researchers.

该提案的目标是提供天文学界完全可以访问的附近年轻恒星的综合目录。 目前，有关太阳约 800% 范围内大约 10,000 - 30,000 个年轻恒星的数据分散在各种档案和已发表的文献中。 其中包括年轻星团、星团和分子云中的恒星，具有以下一种或多种波长的光度/光谱数据：X射线、光学、近红外、中红外和亚毫米/毫米。 此外，还可以通过各种资源获得诸如恒星参数、角动量指标、活动测量、星周盘诊断等导出量。该项目将通过填充所有已知或可疑成员数据的关系数据库，提供对基础数据产品以及与年轻明星相关的更高级别数据产品的有针对性和灵活的访问。 该数据库还将具有广泛的教育价值，对从课堂教师到经验丰富的科学研究人员的广泛用户有用。
