猎户座星云中的恒星形成I:恒星内容

Star Formation in the Orion Nebula I: Stellar Content

August Muench, Konstantin Getman, Lynne Hillenbrand, Thomas Preibisch

摘要:

猎户座星云是最常被观测到的附近(<1千秒差距)恒星形成区域之一,因此,它是大量观测和解释的参考书目的主题。本章的概要在空间上以HII泡状星云为界,其辐射源位于中央星云之外,属于本书其他章节所述的动力学星团的一部分。本文讨论了猎户座大星云中大质量OB星、金牛座T星总体、星下源和变星的全色观测。首先,简要介绍了400年来对星云的观测历史。由于这段历史清楚地标志着在每个时代的新技术,最近的超深X射线调查和高分辨率多历元监测的大规模双星系统和射电星提供的启示在这篇评论中受到特别关注。讨论的主题包括运动学,多样性,质量分布,旋转,和拱星特征的前主序星人口。此外,还深入讨论了猎户座星云星团距离的历史和当前限制;长期存在的10-20%的不确定性最近才开始收敛到约400秒差距的值。补充目前审查的恒星星族是一个同伴章审查分子云,电离HII区和最年轻的原恒星源。

英文摘要:

The Orion Nebula is one of the most frequently observed nearby (<1 kiloparsec) star forming regions and, consequently, the subject of a large bibliography of observations and interpretation. The summary in this chapter is bounded spatially by the blister HII region, with sources beyond the central nebula that are part of the same dynamical clustering covered in other chapters in this book. Herein are discussed panchromatic observations of the massive OB stars, the general T Tauri population, the sub-stellar sources and variable stars within the Orion Nebula. First, a brief history of 400 years of observation of the Nebula is presented. As this history is marked clearly by revelations provided in each age of new technology, recent ultra-deep X-ray surveys and high resolution multi-epoch monitoring of massive binary systems and radio stars receive special attention in this review. Topics discussed include the kinematics, multiplicity, mass distribution, rotation, and circumstellar characteristics of the pre-main sequence population. Also treated in depth are historical and current constraints on the distance to the Orion Nebula Cluster; a long standing 10-20% uncertainty has only recently begun to converge on a value near ~400 parsecs. Complementing the current review of the stellar population is a companion chapter reviewing the molecular cloud, ionized HII region and the youngest protostellar sources.
