YSOs in the Serpens Molecular Cloud

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present Spitzer InfraRed Spectrograph (IRS) mid-infrared (5-35um) spectra of a complete flux-limited sample (>=3mJy at 8um) of young stellar object (YSO) candidates selected on the basis of their infrared colors in the Serpens Molecular Cloud.

Description

Spectra of 147 sources are presented and classified. Background stars (with slope consistent with a reddened stellar spectrum and silicate features in absorption), galaxies (with redshifted polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) features), and a planetary nebula (with high ionization lines) amount to 22% of contamination in this sample, leaving 115 true YSOs.

Sources with rising spectra and ice absorption features, classified as embedded Stage I protostars, amount to 18% of the sample. The remaining 82% (94) of the disk sources are analyzed in terms of spectral energy distribution shapes, PAHs, and silicate features. The presence, strength, and shape of these silicate features are used to infer disk properties for these systems.

About 8% of the disks have 30/13um flux ratios consistent with cold disks with inner holes or gaps, and 3% of the disks show PAH emission.
