X-ray star clusters in the Carina complex

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The distribution of young stars found in the Chandra Carina Complex Project (CCCP) is examined for clustering structure.

Description

X-ray surveys are advantageous for identifying young stellar populations compared to optical and infrared surveys in suffering less contamination from nebular emission and Galactic field stars. The analysis is based on smoothed maps of a spatially complete subsample of ~3000 brighter X-ray sources classified as Carina members and ~10000 stars from the full CCCP sample.

The principal known clusters are recovered, and some additional smaller groups are identified. No rich embedded clusters are present, although a number of sparse groups are found. The CCCP reveals considerable complexity in clustering properties.
