摘要:

本文给出了Stephenson的2号星团和Mercer等(2005)的4号、8号和13号星团中红超巨星的SiO和H $_2$ O脉泽谱线的射电观测结果,Stephenson的2号星团和西南附近的星团中包含了15颗以上的红超巨星。我们在Stephenson的2号脉泽中心探测到一个,在西南聚集的SiO脉泽谱线中探测到三个,在H_2O脉泽谱线中也探测到这四个中的三个。这4个天体的平均径向速度为96 km/s^{-1},运动学距离为5.5 kpc,位于Scutum-Crux旋臂的底部附近。此外,在CO J=1- 0线上对这些星团的映射观测显示,与原型红超巨星星团相比,斯蒂芬森的2号星团周围仍然存在相当数量的分子气体。122号。这表明气体排出的时间尺度在单个星系团中差异很大。

英文摘要:

We present the result of radio observations of red supergiants in the star cluster, Stephenson's #2, and candidates for red supergiants in the star clusters, Mercer et al. (2005)'s #4, #8, and #13, in the SiO and H$_2$O maser lines.The Stephenson's #2 cluster and nearby aggregation at the South-West contain more than 15 red supergiants. We detected one at the center of Stephenson's #2 and three in the south-west aggregation in the SiO maser line, and three of these 4 were also detected in the H2O maser line. The average radial velocity of the 4 detected objects is 96 km s^{-1}, giving a kinematic distance of 5.5 kpc, which locates this cluster near the base of the Scutum-Crux spiral arm. We also detected 6 SiO emitting objects associated with the other star clusters. In addition, mapping observations in the CO J=1--0 line toward these clusters revealed that an appreciable amount of molecular gas still remains around Stephenson's #2 cluster in contrast to the prototypical red-supergiant cluster, Bica et al.'s #122. It indicates that a time scale of gas expulsion differs considerably in individual clusters.
