Abstract

The Hunting for Outbursting Young Stars with the Centre for Astrophysics and Planetary Science is aiming to study the long term variability of Young Stars in nearby clusters. The talk will briefly introduce the project and present some of our initial results. We will focus on the study of the statistics of dimming events from structures in the accretion disks of the sample of young stars. We will also discuss some of the more unusual objects in our sample.
