چکیده
Context. Measurements of internal dynamics young clusters and star-forming regions are crucial to fully understand the process their formation. A basic prerequisite for this is a well-established robust list probable members. Aims. In work, we study 2.8° ×2.6° region in emblematic Rosette Nebula, centred cluster NGC 2244, with aim constructing most reliable candidate member date. Using obtained catalogue, can determine various structural kinematic parameters, which help draw conclusions about past future region. Methods. We constructed catalogue containing optical mid-infrared photometry, as well accurate positions proper motions from Gaia EDR3 sources field Nebula. applied probabilistic random forest algorithm derive membership probability each source within our view. Based on almost 3000 members, third concentrated radius 20′ centre identified clustered stellar concentrations region, estimated average distance entire at 1489 ± 37 pc, 1440 32 pc 1525 36 2237. The masses, extinction, ages were derived by fitting spectral energy distribution atmosphere evolutionary models, dynamic was assessed via relative mean motion 2244. Results. 2244 showing clear expansion pattern, an velocity that increases radius. Its initial mass function (IMF) represented two power laws (d N /d M ∝ − α ), slopes = 1.05 0.02 range 0.2–1.5 ⊙ 2.3 0.3 1.5–20 , it agreement detected other regions. age HR diagram, ∼2 Myr. find evidence difference between associated molecular cloud, appears slightly younger. dispersion above virial total (1000 70 ) half-mass (3.4 0.2 pc). From comparison numerical simulations, conclude may be unbound possibly have even formed super-virial state.

The red stellar population in NGC 1569
Agency ABSTRACT We present HST NICMOS photometry of the resolved stellar population in the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 1569. The color-magnitude diagram (CMD) in the F110W and F160W photometric bands contains ∼2400 stars with a formal photometric error ∼ < 0.1 mag down to m F110W ≈ 23.5 and m F160W ≈ 22.5. The fiducial photometry has a completeness factor higher than 50% down to m F110W ≈ 21.5 a...
متن کاملChemically peculiar stars in the field of NGC 2244 ?
Low-resolution long-slit spectra of reference stars, including MKK standard stars and well-known chemically peculiar stars, are used to develop a spectroscopic method for the detection of the 5200 Å flux depression in CP stars. This new method is shown to be as sensitive a detection tool as the photometrical techniques, and provides a higher resolution view of the excess blocking. Application t...
متن کامل2 00 5 Is the emerging massive cluster NGC 2244 a twin cluster ?
We present in this paper the first near infrared study of the young open cluster NGC 2244, which is well known for its partially embedded nature in the Rosette Nebula. Based on the spatially complete 2 Micron All Sky Survey, the young OB cluster indicates apparent substructures. It is surprisingly resolved into a compact core that matches well the congregation of massive OB stars in the optical...
متن کاملStar Formation in the Rosette Complex
The Rosette Complex in the constellation of Monoceros is a magnificent laboratory for the study of star formation. The region presents an interesting scenario, in which an expanding HII region generated by the large OB association NGC 2244 is interacting with a giant molecular cloud. Inside the cloud a number of stellar clusters have formed recently. In this chapter we present a review of past ...
متن کاملThe Stellar Populations of NGC 3109: Another Dwarf Irregular Galaxy with a Population II Stellar Halo
We have obtained V and I-band photometry for about 17500 stars in the field of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 3109, located in the outskirts of the Local Group. The photometry allows us to study the stellar populations present inside and outside the disk of this galaxy. From the VI color-magnitude diagram we infer metallicities and ages for the stellar populations in the main body and in the ha...
