The Star Formation in Nearby Clouds (SFiNCs) project is aimed at providing detailed study of the young stellar populations and star cluster formation in nearby 22 star forming regions (SFRs) for comparison with our earlier MYStIX survey of richer, more distant clusters. As a foundation for the SFiNCs science studies, here, homogeneous data analyses of the Chandra X-ray and Spitzer mid-infrared archival SFiNCs data are described, and the resulting catalogs of over 15300 X-ray and over 1630000 mid-infrared point sources are presented. On the basis of their X-ray/infrared properties and spatial distributions, nearly 8500 point sources have been identified as probable young stellar members of the SFiNCs regions. Compared to the existing X-ray/mid-infrared publications, the SFiNCs member list increases the census of YSO members by 6-200% for individual SFRs and by 40% for the merged sample of all 22 SFiNCs SFRs.

Gaia21bja: pre-main sequence star with quasi-periodic bursts
astro-ph.SR 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 4.0

Gaia21bja is identified as a pre-main sequence star with quasi-periodic bursts, showing spectral features and a 5.5-6 times higher accretion rate during outbursts that place it in the periodic category of outbursting YSOs.
