The Stellar Content of Obscured Galactic Giant H II Regions: II. W42 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We present near infrared J, H, and K images and K-band spectroscopy in the giant HII region W42. A massive star cluster is revealed; the color-color plot and K-band spectroscopic morphology of two of the brighter objects suggest the presence of young ...

Exploring Stellar Cluster and Feedback-driven Star Formation in the Galactic Mid-infrared Bubble [HKS2019] E70

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a comprehensive analysis of the Galactic mid-infrared bubble [HKS2019] E70 (E70) by adopting a multiwavelength approach to understand the physical environment and star formation scenario around it.

The effect of the dynamical state of clusters on gas expulsion and infant mortality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The star formation efficiency (SFE) of a star cluster is thought to be the critical factor in determining if the cluster can survive for a significant (>50 Myr) time.

Halpha-Derived Star-Formation Rates For Three z ~ 0.75 EDisCS Galaxy Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present Halpha-derived star-formation rates (SFRs) for three z ~ 0.75 galaxy clusters. Our 1 sigma flux limit corresponds to a star-formation rate of 0.10-0.24 solar mass per year, and our minimum reliable Halpha + [N II] rest-frame equivalent width ...

Kernel Density Estimation in the Study of Star Clusters

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2016
The kernel estimator method is used to evaluate the surface and spatial star number density in star clusters. Both density maps and radial density profiles are plotted.

HOW FAR CAN GET FRB PROGENITOR NEUTRON STARS FROM THEIR BIRTHPLACE?

open access: yesВестник. Серия физическая, 2021
The recent studies show evidence of magnetars – young neutron stars being good candidates of fast radio birth sources. Neutron stars can form as remnants of type II supernovae explosions of young stars.

The role of the central stellar cluster in active galactic nuclei. I. Semi-analytical model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The subject of the paper is the role of the massive stellar cluster in the activity phenomenon and in the structure of active galactic nuclei. We introduce a simple model of stellar dynamics in the internal part of the cluster, which allows us to include

Star cluster dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2010
Dynamical evolution plays a key role in shaping the current properties of star clusters and star cluster systems. A detailed understanding of the effects of evolutionary processes is essential to be able to disentangle the properties that result from dynamical evolution from those imprinted at the time of cluster formation.

Does God play dice with star clusters?

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2023
When a detailed model of a stellar population is unavailable, it is most common to assume that stellar masses are independently and identically distributed according to some distribution: the universal initial mass function (IMF). However, stellar masses

Do O-stars form in isolation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Around 4% of O-stars are observed in apparent isolation, with no associated cluster, and no indication of having been ejected from a nearby cluster. We define an isolated O-star as a star > 17.5 M_\odot in a cluster with total mass 10 M_\odot) stars.
