We present VLT/SINFONI integral field spectroscopy of RCW 34 along with Spitzer/IRAC photometry of the surroundings. RCW 34 consists of three different regions. A large bubble has been detected on the IRAC images in which a cluster of intermediate- and low-mass class II objects is found. At the northern edge of this bubble, an HII region is located, ionized by 3 OB stars. Intermediate mass stars (2 - 3 Msun) are detected of G- and K- spectral type. These stars are still in the pre-main sequence (PMS) phase. North of the HII region, a photon-dominated region is present, marking the edge of a dense molecular cloud traced by H2 emission. Several class 0/I objects are associated with this cloud, indicating that star formation is still taking place. The distance to RCW 34 is revised to 2.5 +- 0.2 kpc and an age estimate of 2 - 1 Myrs is derived from the properties of the PMS stars inside the HII region. The most likely scenario for the formation of the three regions is that star formation propagates from South to North. First the bubble is formed, produced by intermediate- and low-mass stars only, after that, the HII region is formed from a dense core at the edge of the molecular cloud, resulting in the expansion as a champagne flow. More recently, star formation occurred in the rest of the molecular cloud. Two different formation scenarios are possible: (a) The bubble with the cluster of low- and intermediate mass stars triggered the formation of the O star at the edge of the molecular cloud which in turn induces the current star-formation in the molecular cloud. (b) An external triggering is responsible for the star-formation propagating from South to North. [abridged]

内容:$χ^{1}$天炉座星团(Alessi 13)是太阳附近为数不多的几个年龄和距离的疏散星团之一,应该得到更多的关注,因为它可以作为未来许多与恒星和行星形成有关的研究的基石。目的:我们利用盖亚太空任务第三次数据发布的早期安装,结合档案数据和我们自己的观察,扩大集群成员的普查,并重新审视集群的一些属性。研究方法:我们应用概率的方法来推断成员的概率超过1000度${^2}$的字段选择最有可能的集群成员,并得出的距离,空间速度和物理性质的恒星在这个样本。结果:我们确定了164个高概率的集群成员(包括61个新成员),涵盖了5.1至19.6等的G带星等范围。我们的集群成员的样本是完整的0.04 M $_{\odot}$。我们从贝叶斯推断中推导出了$108.4\pm0.3$ pc的距离,并证实了该星团与杜鹃座-时钟座、天鸽座和船底座年轻恒星协同运动。我们调查的运动学的集群从一个子样本的恒星测量径向速度,我们没有发现任何显着的膨胀或旋转的集群的影响。我们的研究结果表明,集群是有点年轻(约30万年)比以前认为的。基于光谱观测,我们认为,集群是质量分离和光谱类型的分布相比,其他年轻的恒星群显示出很小的变化。结论:在这项研究中,我们提供了最完整的集群成员普查,可以单独使用盖亚数据完成,我们使用这个新的样本来提供集群6D结构的更新图片。
