Mass accretion rate as a function of stellar mass for the seven Taurus CTTs studied (blue circles) compared with stars in Lupus (black symbols). The Lupus transitional disks are shown with crossed squares. Lupus objects classified as weak or negligible accretors are plotted with downward arrows. The long-dashed black line represents the shift of HN Tau A on the diagram when correcting its Ṁ_acc and M_⋆ values for obscuration effects by the disk. The corrected values are shown with the red dot. The leftward and downward red arrows represent the upper limits on M_⋆ and Ṁ_acc for CQ Tau, respectively. The black dashed line shows the double power law theoretically predicted by Vorobyov & Basu (2009), and the continuous magenta lines represent the fits to the data as in Eqs. (4) and (5) of Alcalá et al. (2017). The average errors for the Taurus sample are shown in the upper left. Figure adapted from Alcalá et al. (2019).
