Star Formation in Space and Time: the Orion Nebula Cluster
We examine the pattern of star birth in the Orion Nebula cluster (ONC), with the goal of discerning the cluster’s formation mechanism. Outside the Trapezium, the distribution of stellar masses is remarkably uniform and is not accurately described by the field-star initial mass function. The deconvolved, three-dimensional density of cluster members peaks at the Trapezium stars, which are truly a...
متن کاملThe Formation of a Bound Star Cluster: From the Orion Nebula Cluster to the Pleiades
Direct N -body calculations are presented of the formation of Galactic clusters using GasEx, which is a variant of the code Nbody6. The calculations focus on the possible evolution of the Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) by assuming that the embedded OB stars explosively drove out 2/3 of its mass in the form of gas about 0.4 Myr ago. A bound cluster forms readily and survives for 150 Myr despite addi...
متن کاملStar Formation in the Orion-monoceros Complex
Pre-main sequence stars in the Orion-Monoceros Complex are either distributed in groups closed associated with dense cores, or dispersed along molecular filaments. Some molecular clouds are apparently affected by the OrionEridanus Superbubble created by the Wolf-Rayet winds and supernovae from the OriOB1 association, whose shock fronts compressed and triggered starbirth in adjacent molecular cl...
متن کاملTesting Massive Star Formation Theory in Orion
I compare theoretical models of massive star formation with observations of the Orion Hot Core, which harbors one of the closest massive protostars. Although this region is complicated, many of its features (size, luminosity, accretion disk, H II region, outflow) may be understood by starting with a simple model in which the star forms from a massive gas core that is a coherent entity in approx...
متن کاملStar Formation Efficiencies and Star Cluster Formation
Starbursts produce large numbers of Young Star Clusters (YSCs). Multi-color photometry in combination with a dedicated SED analysis tool allows to derive ages, metallicities, EB−V, and masses including 1σ uncertainties for individual clusters and, hence, mass functions for YSC systems. The mass function, known to be Gaussian for old Globular Cluster (GC) systems, is still controversial for YSC ...
