VLA observations of T Tauri stars. II - A luminosity-limited survey of Taurus-Auriga

The results of a 4.885-GHz VLA survey of 46 T Tau stars and Herbig-Haro objects with log L 0.2 or greater in the Taurus-Auriga dark clouds, performed in February 1982, with 40-60-min observation times, are presented in tables and contour maps and discussed. Upper limits are given for objects not detected at 4.885 GHz; additional observations at 1.465, 14.965, and 22.485 GHz are included for the objects detected; and spectral indices are derived for 10 objects. The individual objects are characterized in detail, and it is concluded that detectable radio emission is more likely for T Tau stars with associated Herbig-Haro objects than for those without. The implications of the nonthermal spectra identified in several objects for theories of theoretical models of radio emission are indicated.
