摘要:

新生大质量恒星的精确物理参数是揭示其形成的重要因素,这仍然是一个未解决的问题。麦哲伦星云(MC)中罕见的紧凑H II区域,称为“高激发斑点”(HEBs),提供了获取这些信息的独特机会。这些天体(直径约4”至10”,约1至3 pc)拥有最年轻的大质量恒星OB协会/分子云复合体,可通过高分辨率近红外和光学技术获得。我们简要概述了HST主要在两个HEB上获得的结果,一个在LMC(N159-5),另一个在SMC(N81)。

英文摘要:

Accurate physical parameters of newborn massive stars are essential ingredients to shed light on their formation, which is still an unsolved problem. The rare class of compact H II regions in the Magellanic Clouds (MCs), termed ``high-excitation blobs'' (HEBs), presents a unique opportunity to acquire this information. These objects (~ 4" to 10", ~ 1 to 3 pc, in diameter) harbor the youngest massive stars of the OB association/molecular cloud complexes in the MCs accessible through high-resolution near-IR and optical techniques. We present a brief overview of the results obtained with HST mainly on two HEBs, one in the LMC (N159-5) and the other in the SMC (N81).
