Objects in LHA 115-N83-84-85 SMC region

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

In this article we study the N83-84-85 region of the inner wing of the SMC.

Description

Direct and low-dispersion objective prism plates taken with the 1.2m UK Schmidt Telescope have been digitized by the SuperCOSMOS machine. Star counts have been performed for our region in selected luminosity slices in the U filter and isodensity contours have been used to identify the structures with enhanced stellar number density.

We find evidence of triggered star formation from massive stars of older to more recent OB associations. Circular arcs constructed by O and B stars have been detected. A study of the population places stars with more recent ages in the groups of the arcs than of their centers.

These effects can be explained by supernova explosions. A catalogue of the non-saturated detected OB stars in this region is given.
