Massive star and star cluster formation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2006
AbstractI review the status of massive star formation theories: accretion from collapsing, massive, turbulent cores; competitive accretion; and stellar collisions. I conclude the observational and theoretical evidence favors the first of these models.

The reversal of the SF-density relation in a massive, X-ray selected galaxy cluster at z=1.58: results from Herschel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dusty, star-forming galaxies have a critical role in the formation and evolution of massive galaxies in the Universe. Using deep far-infrared imaging in the range 100-500um obtained with the Herschel telescope, we investigate the dust-obscured star ...

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.

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.

The embedded cluster or association Trumpler 37 in IC1396: a search for evolutionary constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is currently widely accepted that open star clusters and stellar associations result from the evolution of embedded star clusters. Parameters such star formation efficiency, time-scale of gas removal and velocity dispersion can be determinants of ...

Z-FIRE: ISM properties of the z = 2.095 COSMOS Cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate the ISM properties of 13 star-forming galaxies within the z~2 COSMOS cluster. We show that the cluster members have [NII]/Ha and [OIII]/Hb emission-line ratios similar to z~2 field galaxies, yet systematically different emission-line ...

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

Membership Analysis and 3D Kinematics of the Star-forming Complex around Trumpler 37 Using Gaia-DR3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Identifying and characterizing young populations of star-forming regions are crucial to unraveling their properties. In this regard, Gaia-DR3 data and machine-learning tools are very useful for studying large star-forming complexes.

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.

STROMGREN PHOTOMETRY AND SEARCH FOR SHORT PERIOD VARIABLES IN THE OPEN CLUSTERS NGC 6910 AND NGC 6913

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Analysis of the absolute uvby photometry of the Open Clusters NGC 6910 and NGC 6913 show well-defined peaks that clearly define the accumulation of stars. Differential photometry of five stars in the direction of each cluster determines that at least two
