Red supergiants in Sct-Cru Galactic arm

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We report on the unprecedented red supergiant (RSG) population of a massive young cluster, located at the base of the Scutum-Crux Galactic arm.

Description

We identify candidate cluster RSGs based on 2MASS photometry and medium-resolution spectroscopy. With follow-up high-resolution spectroscopy, we use CO band-head equivalent width and high-precision radial velocity measurements to identify a core grouping of 26 physically associated RSGs-the largest such cluster known to date.
