Lyo et al. 2004a Hα emission line : accretion disk & chromospheric activity Li I absorption line : age indicator because Li I is diminished fast during the very early phase of stellar evolution.

ε Chamaelentis cluster : t = 3 - 5 Myr (Feigelson et al. 2003) ~ 6 Myr (Luhman 2004) η Cha cluster : t = 5 - 8 Myr (Luhman & Steeghs 2004) = 7 - 9 Myr (Lyo et al. 2004) TW Hydrae association : t ~ 8 - 10 Myr (Webb et al. 1999) β Pictoris Moving group : t ~ 20±10 Myr (Barrado y Navascues 2001) Lower Centaurus Crux : t = 17 ~ 23 Myr (Mamajek et al. 2002) a common kinematic link with the Ophiuchus-Scorpius- Centaurus OB Association
