Qingfeng Zhu, Ben Davies, Donald F. Figer, Christine Trombley

摘要:

我们提出了一个新发现的候选集群[DBS 2003] 45的多波长光度和光谱研究。我们的H,Ks测光证实[DBS 2003] 45是一个星团。需要平均视觉消光Av 7.1+/-0.5来拟合具有模型等时线的聚类序列。低解析度光谱显示该星团中有六颗早期B型巨星和至少一颗晚期O型巨星。我们估计年龄的集群之间的光谱分析的基础上5和8百万年。假设年龄为600万年,我们用幂律N(M)M^(-Gamma)拟合观测到的质量函数,发现指数Gamma为1.27+/-0.15,这与萨尔皮特值一致。我们估计总的集群质量约为1000太阳质量通过整合派生的质量函数之间的0.5和45太阳质量。中红外和无线电波长观测都表明,一个充满电离气体的气泡与星团有关。从射电连续谱测量估计的总电离光子通量与我们探测到的热星数量一致。沿着气泡边缘的红外亮点源表明,在HII区域的外围有触发的恒星形成。

英文摘要:

We present a multi-wavelength photometric and spectroscopic study of a newly discovered candidate cluster [DBS2003] 45. Our H, Ks photometry confirms that [DBS2003] 45 is a cluster. An average visual extinction Av 7.1+/-0.5 is needed to fit the cluster sequence with a model isochrone. Low resolution spectroscopy indicates that half a dozen early B and at least one late O type giant stars are present in the cluster. We estimate the age of the cluster to be between 5 and 8 Myr based on spectroscopic analysis. Assuming an age of 6 Myr, we fit the observed mass function with a power law, N(M) M^(-Gamma), and find an index Gamma 1.27+/-0.15, which is consistent with the Salpeter value. We estimate the total cluster mass is around 1000 solar masses by integrating the derived mass function between 0.5 and 45 solar masses. Both mid-infrared and radio wavelength observations show that a bubble filled with ionized gas is associated with the cluster. The total ionizing photon flux estimated from radio continuum measurements is consistent with the number of hot stars we detected. Infrared bright point sources along the rim of the bubble suggest that there is triggered star formation at the periphery of the HII region.
