摘要:

我们的目标是研究上天蝎座和蛇夫座恒星形成区所涵盖的区域的空间和运动学子结构,确定动力学追溯年龄和研究复杂的恒星形成历史。我们在这个地区发现了七个不同的群体。四个族群(nu Sco、beta Sco、sigma Sco和delta Sco)属于上天蝎座,两个族群(rho Oph和alpha Sco)属于蛇夫座,另一个族群(pi Sco)属于附近的年轻族群。我们发现从rho Oph组(最年轻)到delta Sco组(<~ 500万年)的年龄梯度,表明恒星形成是过去500万年的连续过程。我们的回溯分析表明,上天蝎座和rho Oph群体有着共同的起源。更接近的π Sco组可能更古老,回溯分析表明,这组和α Sco组有不同的起源,可能与Sco-Cen复合体中的其他协会有关。我们的研究表明,这个区域有一个复杂的恒星形成历史,超出了目前的形成场景,可能是大质量恒星,超新星爆炸以及恒星群和分子气体之间动态相互作用的结果。特别是,我们推测,光电离从大规模的三角洲斯科星可能引发恒星形成的第一个在β斯科集团,然后在努斯科集团。恒星轨道的扰动,由于恒星反馈和动力学相互作用也可以负责1-3万年的差异,我们发现之间的动力学追溯年龄和等时年龄。

英文摘要:

We aim to study spatial and kinematic substructures of the region encompassed by Upper Scorpius and Ophiuchus star-forming regions, determining dynamical traceback ages and studying the star formation history of the complex. We identified seven different groups in this region. Four groups (nu Sco, beta Sco, sigma Sco and delta Sco) are part of Upper Scorpius, two groups (rho Oph and alpha Sco) are in Ophiuchus, and another group (pi Sco) is a nearby young population. We found an age gradient from the rho Oph group (the youngest) to the delta Sco group (<~5 Myr), showing that star formation was a sequential process for the past 5 Myr. Our traceback analysis shows that Upper Scorpius and rho Oph groups share a common origin. The closer group of pi Sco is probably older, and the traceback analysis suggests that this group and the alpha Sco group have a different origin, likely related to other associations in the Sco-Cen complex. Our study shows that this region has a complex star formation history that goes beyond the current formation scenario, likely a result of stellar feedback from massive stars, supernovae explosions, and dynamic interactions between stellar groups and the molecular gas. In particular, we speculate that photo-ionisation from the massive delta Sco star could have triggered star formation first in the beta Sco group and then in the nu Sco group. The perturbations of stellar orbits due to stellar feedback and dynamical interactions could also be responsible for the 1-3 Myr difference that we found between dynamical traceback ages and isochronal ages.
