Stellar collisions in young star clusters
We consider the effect of mass segregation on the observable integrated properties of star clusters. The measurable properties depend on a combination of the dynamical age of the cluster and the physical age of the stars in the cluster. To investigate all possible combinations of these two quantities, we propose an analytical model for the mass function of segregated star clusters that agrees w...
متن کاملIras 20050+2720: Anatomy of a Young Stellar Cluster
IRAS 20050+2720 is young star forming region at a distance of 700 pc without apparent high mass stars. We present results of our multiwavelength study of IRAS 20050+2720 which includes observations by Chandra and Spitzer, and 2MASS and UBVRI photometry. In total, about 300 YSOs in different evolutionary stages are found. We characterize the distribution of young stellar objects (YSOs) in this r...
متن کاملStellar-Dynamics of Young Star Clusters
The stellar-dynamical evolution of bound star clusters during the first few Myr is dominated by binary-binary and binary-star interactions, the rapid sinking of the most massive stars to the centre of the clusters and mass loss from evolving stars. The consequences of these processes for the binary and stellar population in clusters, and for the star clusters as a whole, are studied by followin...
متن کاملModeling the Near-Infrared Luminosity Functions of Young Stellar Clusters
We present the results of numerical experiments designed to evaluate the usefulness of near-infrared luminosity functions for constraining the Initial Mass Function (IMF) of young stellar populations. We test the sensitivity of the near-infrared K band luminosity function (KLF) of a young stellar cluster to variations in the underlying IMF, star forming history, and pre-main sequence mass-to-lu...
متن کاملThe Structure and Evolution of Young Stellar Clusters
We examine the properties of embedded clusters within 1 kiloparsec using new data from the Spitzer Space Telescope, as well as recent results from 2MASS and other ground-based near-infrared surveys. We use surveys of entire molecular clouds to understand the range and distribution of cluster membership, size and surface density. The Spitzer data demonstrate clearly that there is a continuum of ...
