到年轻疏散星团Westerlund 2的距离

The distance to the young open cluster Westerlund 2

Giovanni Carraro, David Turner, Daniel Majaess, Gustavo Baume

摘要:

证据表明,年轻星团Westerlund~2位于船底座方向的$d_{\odot}\sim3.0$ kpc处。这个距离部分与新的$UBVRI_c$测光和修正的星团恒星光谱分类有关,这意味着船底座方向的尘埃具有异常消光定律($R_V\sim3.8$)的特征。这一结果是从一个多方面的方法依赖于可变消光和颜色过剩的方法。

英文摘要:

Evidence is presented indicating that the young star cluster Westerlund~2 lies $d_{\odot}\sim3.0$ kpc in the direction of Carina. The distance is tied partly to new $UBVRI_c$ photometry and revised spectral classifications for cluster stars, which imply that dust in the direction of Carina is characterized by an anomalous extinction law ($R_V\sim3.8$). That result was determined from a multi-faceted approach relying on the variable-extinction and color excess methods.
