来自WISE巡天的新银河嵌入星团和候选星团

New Galactic embedded clusters and candidates from a WISE Survey

Denilso Camargo, Eduardo Bica, Charles Bonatto

摘要:

我们使用WISE图像进行了新的红外星团,恒星群和候选者的搜索,这些图像对尘埃发射星云非常敏感。我们报告发现了437个嵌入式星团和恒星群,这些星团和恒星群在恒星和星云组成部分中都显示出各种各样的结构。观察到成对或小的集群,表明在早期形成阶段的多代。由此产生的星表提供了银河系和赤道坐标,以及所有天体的角度大小。本文用2MASS光度法详细研究了一个由14个团簇组成的代表性测试子样品的性质。色星等图和径向密度分布表明它们是星团。在$145^\circ\,\leq\,\ell\,\leq 290^\circ$和$-25^\circ\,\leq\,b\,\leq 20^\circ$范围内发现了437个新天体,它们似乎是未来研究恒星团簇形成及其早期演化的主要天体来源。WISE是一个强大的工具,可以进一步探测整个磁盘中非常年轻的集群。

英文摘要:

We carried out a search for new infrared star clusters, stellar groups and candidates using WISE images, which are very sensitive to dust emission nebulae. We report the discovery of 437 embedded clusters and stellar groups that show a variety of structures, both in the stellar and nebular components. Pairs or small groupings of clusters are observed, suggesting multiple generations at the early formation stages. The resulting catalogue provides Galactic and equatorial coordinates, together with angular sizes for all objects. The nature of a representative test sub-sample of 14 clusters is investigated in detail by means of 2MASS photometry. The colour magnitude diagrams and radial density distributions characterize them as stellar clusters. The 437 new objects were found in the ranges $145^\circ\,\leq\,\ell\,\leq 290^\circ$ and $-25^\circ\,\leq\,b\,\leq 20^\circ$, and they appear to be a major object source for future studies of star cluster formation and their early evolution. WISE is a powerful tool to further probe for very young clusters throughout the disk.
