摘要:

我们分析了NGC 2024中的NANTEN 2 13 CO(J=2-1和1-0)数据集。我们发现,云由两个速度分量,而云显示主要是单峰CO配置文件。这两个组成部分是物理上连接到HII区,证明了他们的密切相关的黑暗泳道和发射星云。这两种成分呈互补分布,位移为0.4 pc。这种互补分布是在高质量恒星形成区域发现的碰撞云的典型特征。我们推测,云-云碰撞的两个组件之间触发了形成的晚O星和早期B星定位在0.3 pc的云峰。碰撞时间尺度估计为10^5年左右,根据位移与相对速度之比3-4 km s-1进行了可能的预测修正。碰撞云1023 cm-2的高柱密度类似于RCW 38、Westerlund 2、NGC 3603和M42中的其他大质量星团,它们可能是在云-云碰撞的触发下形成的。目前的结果提供了一个额外的证据,有利于大质量恒星形成的主要云-云碰撞在猎户座。

英文摘要:

We analyzed the NANTEN2 13CO (J=2-1 and 1-0) datasets in NGC 2024. We found that the cloud consists of two velocity components, whereas the cloud shows mostly single-peaked CO profiles. The two components are physically connected to the HII region as evidenced by their close correlation with the dark lanes and the emission nebulosity. The two components show complementary distribution with a displacement of 0.4 pc. Such complementary distribution is typical to colliding clouds discovered in regions of high-mass star formation. We hypothesize that cloud-cloud collision between the two components triggered the formation of the late O stars and early B stars localized within 0.3 pc of the cloud peak. The collision timescale is estimated to be ~ 10^5 yrs from a ratio of the displacement and the relative velocity 3-4 km s-1 corrected for probable projection. The high column density of the colliding cloud 1023 cm-2 is similar to those in the other massive star clusters in RCW 38, Westerlund 2, NGC 3603, and M42, which are likely formed under trigger by cloud-cloud collision. The present results provide an additional piece of evidence favorable to high-mass star formation by a major cloud-cloud collision in Orion.
