摘要

Aims. We aim at determining the rotational periods and thestarspot properties in very young low-mass stars belonging to the OriOB1c star forming region, contributing to the study of the angularmomentum and magnetic activity evolution in these objects. Methods. We performed an intensive photometric monitoring of the PMS stars falling in a field of about 10in the vicinity of the Orion nebula cluster (ONC), also containing theBD eclipsing system 2MASSJ05352184-0546085. Photometric data werecollected between November 2006 and January 2007 with the REM telescopein the bands. The largest number of observations is in the Iband (about 2700images) and inJ and Hbands(about 500images in each filter). From the observed rotationalmodulation, induced by the presence of surface inhomogeneities, wederived the rotation periods. The long time-baseline (nearly threemonths) allowed us to detect rotation periods, also for the slowestrotators, with sufficient accuracy ().The analysis of the spectral energy distributions and, for some stars,of high-resolution spectra provided us with the main stellar parameters(luminosity, effective temperature, mass, age, and )which are essential for the discussion of our results. Moreover, thesimultaneous observations in six bands, spanning from optical tonear-infrared wavelengths, enabled us to derive the starspot propertiesfor these very young low-mass stars. Results. In total, we were able to determine the rotationperiods for 29stars, spanning from about0.6 to20days. Thanks to the relatively long time-baseline of ourphotometry, we derived periods for 16stars and improved previousdeterminations for the other13. We also report the serendipitousdetection of two strong flares in two of these objects. In most cases,the light-curve amplitudes decrease progressively from theR to Hbandas expected for cool starspots, while in a few cases, they can only bemodelled by the presence of hot spots, presumably ascribable tomagnetospheric accretion. The application of our own spot model to thesimultaneous light curves in different bands allowed us to deduce thespot parameters and particularly to disentangle the spot temperatureand size effects on the observed light curves.
