Variable stars in young open star clusters

open access: yesBulletin de la Société Royale des Sciences de Liège, 2018
We have carried out time series photometry of the some young open clusters NGC 1893, Be 59, NGC 7380, Stock 8 and NGC 281 to search for pre-main-sequence variable stars. We have detected several pre-main-sequence variables associated to the young open clusters with periods ranging from ~0.1 to ~50 days.

An HST/WFPC2 Survey of Bright Young Clusters in M31 III. Structural Parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Surface brightness profiles for 23 M31 star clusters were measured using images from the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 on the Hubble Space Telescope, and fit to two types of models to determine the clusters' structural properties.

On the origin of the red excess in very young super star clusters: the case of SBS 0335-052E [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The spectral energy distribution analysis of very young unresolved star clusters challenges our understanding of the cluster formation process. Studies of resolved massive clusters in the Milky Way and in the nearby Magellanic Clouds show us that the ...

Formation of Young Star Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 2005
AbstractTurbulence, self-gravity, and cooling convert most of the interstellar medium into cloudy structures that form stars. Turbulence compresses the gas into clouds directly and it moves pre-existing clouds around passively when there are multiple phases of temperature.

Hierarchical structures in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate the degree of spatial correlation among extended structures in the LMC and SMC. To this purpose we work with sub-samples characterised by different properties such as age and size, taken from the updated catalogue of Bica et al.

The Star Cluster System in the Local Group Starburst Galaxy IC 10

open access: yes, 2015
We present a survey of star clusters in the halo of IC 10, a starburst galaxy in the Local Group based on Subaru R band images and NOAO Local Group Survey UBVRI images. We find five new star clusters.

Age and mass studies for young star clusters in M31 from SEDs-fit

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper, we present photometry for young star clusters in M31, which are selected from Caldwell et al. These star clusters have been observed as part of the Beijing--Arizona--Taiwan--Connecticut (BATC) Multicolor Sky Survey from 1995 February to ...

Be stars in young clusters

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1994
Photometric Ha and HP line indices for 71 B stars in seven galactic clusters are presented. Some stars in three of the clusters were observed at two epochs. Using these data nine Be stars were identified. Three of them were previously detected as emission-line stars, while six do not appear to have been previously recognized as such.

The structure of young star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1999
We analyse and compare the clustering of young stars in Chamaeleon I and Taurus. We compute the mean surface-density of companion stars \bar{N} as a function of angular displacement from each star. We then fit \bar{N}( ) with two simultaneous power laws.

Star Cluster Evolution: From Young Massive Star Clusters to Old Globulars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Young, massive star clusters are the most notable and significant end products of violent star-forming episodes triggered by galaxy collisions, mergers, and close encounters. The question remains, however, whether or not at least a fraction of the compact YMCs seen in abundance in extragalactic starbursts, are potentially the progenitors of globular ...
