چکیده
We present deep 3.6 cm radio continuum observations of the H II region NGC 2024 in Orion B obtained using the Very Large Array in its A-configuration, with 0. 2 angular resolution. We detect a total of 25 compact radio sources in a region of 4 × 4. We discuss the nature of these sources and its relation with the infrared and X-ray objects in the region. At least two of the radio sources are obscured proplyds whose morphology can be used to restrict the location of the main ionizing source of the region. This cluster of radio sources is compared with others that have been found in regions of recent star formation. Subject headings: stars: formation – stars: pre-main sequence – ISM: individual (NGC 2024) – binaries: general – radio continuum

We determine the distribution of circumstellar disk masses in the young (∼ 0.3 Myr) cluster NGC 2024 by imaging a 2. 5×2. 5 region in λ3mm continuum emission to an RMS noise level of ∼ 0.75 mJy beam with the Owens Valley Millimeter Array. The mosaic encompasses 147 K-band sources as well as the molecular ridge seen previously in dust continuum emission. We detect 10 point-like sources in λ3mm c...
متن کاملA Deep Chandra X - ray Observation of the Embedded Young Cluster in NGC 2024
We present results of a sensitive 76 ksec Chandra observation of the young stellar cluster in NGC 2024, lying at a distance of ∼415 pc in the Orion B giant molecular cloud. Previous infrared observations have shown that this remarkable cluster contains several hundred embedded young stars, most of which are still surrounded by circumstellar disks. Thus, it presents a rare opportunity to study X...
متن کاملPHOTOMETRIC IDENTIFICATION OF THE LOW-MASS POPULATION OF ORION OB1b. I. THE ORIONIS CLUSTER
We report an optical photometric survey of 0.89 deg of the Orion OB1b association centered on Ori. This region includes most of the Ori cluster, the highest-density region within Orion OB1b. We have developed a statistical procedure to identify the young, low-mass, pre–main-sequence population of the association. We estimate that the cluster has 160 members in the mass range (0:2 M 1:0 M ). The...

We correlate the positions of 13,240 Brightest Cluster Galaxies (BCGs) with 0.1 ≤ z ≤ 0.3 from the maxBCG catalog with radio sources from the FIRST survey to study the sizes and distributions of radio AGN in galaxy clusters. We find that 19.7% of our BCGs are associated with FIRST sources, and this fraction depends on the stellar mass of the BCG, and to a lesser extent on the richness of the pa...
متن کاملProtoplanetary Disk Masses in the Young Ngc 2024 Cluster
We present the results from a Submillimeter Array survey of the 887 μm continuum emission from the protoplanetary disks around 95 young stars in the young cluster NGC 2024. Emission was detected from 22 infrared sources, with flux densities from ∼5 to 330 mJy; upper limits (at 3σ) for the other 73 sources range from 3 to 24 mJy. For standard assumptions, the corresponding disk masses range from...
