摘要:

为了探测恒星的形成过程,我们对位于l = 24.8度,b = 0.1度附近的几个H II区进行了彻底的多波长研究。观测研究了一个包括中红外泡N36在内的至少有5个H Ⅱ区的系统(以下简称“系统N36”,延伸范围约为35 pc),它位于6.0 kpc的距离处。在这个距离下,我们发现N36系统位于银河棒和我们银河系中的Norma银河臂的界面处,在那里人们可以预期由于棒势而引起的分子云碰撞。每个H II区(动力年龄约0.4 - 1.3百万年)都由一颗O型星提供动力。该系统包含27个870微米的ATLASGAL粉尘团块。有几个团块质量很大(> 10^3 M_sun),并且有很高的热光度(> 10^3 L_sun)。利用GRS 13 CO线资料,在N36方向上,发现了109和113 km/s左右的两个速度分量,并且在速度空间上是联系在一起的。13 CO的形态分析有利于在系统中存在相互作用的分子云。在这两个云团的共同区域观测到4个H Ⅱ区和2个6.7GHz脉泽。斯皮策测光数据的分析还跟踪了系统中明显的SF活动。考虑到观测结果,系统中O型星(包括正在进行的SF)的形成似乎是由分子云在杆臂界面的碰撞触发的。

英文摘要:

To probe the star formation (SF) process, we present a thorough multi-wavelength investigation of several H II regions located toward l = 24.8 deg, b = 0.1 deg. A system of at least five H II regions including the mid-infrared bubble N36 (hereafter "system N36"; extension ~35 pc) is observationally investigated, and is located at a distance of 6.0 kpc. With this distance, the system N36 is found to be situated at the interface of the Galactic bar and the Norma Galactic arm in our Galaxy, where one may expect the collisions of molecular clouds due to the bar potential. Each H II region (dynamical age ~0.4 - 1.3 Myr) in the system is powered by an O-type star. The system contains 27 ATLASGAL dust clumps at 870 micron. Several clumps are massive (> 10^3 M_sun), and have high bolometric luminosity (> 10^3 L_sun). Using the GRS 13CO line data, in the direction of the system N36, two velocity components are found around 109 and 113 km/s, and are linked in the velocity space. The morphological analysis of 13CO favours the presence of interacting molecular clouds in the system. Four H II regions and two 6.7 GHz masers are spatially observed at the common areas of the two clouds. The analysis of the Spitzer photometric data also traces the noticeable SF activity in the system. Considering the observational outcomes, the formation of O-type stars (including ongoing SF) in the system appears to be triggered by the collisions of molecular clouds at the bar-arm interface.
