UBVIc CCD photometry of star clusters Tr14 and Tr16

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present new UBVIc CCD photometry of the young open clusters Trumpler 14 (Tr 14) and Trumpler 16 (Tr 16) in the {eta} Carina Nebula (NGC 3372).

Description

We also identify the optical counterpart of Chandra X-ray sources and Two Micron All Sky Survey point sources. The members of the clusters were selected from the proper-motion study, spectral types, reddening characteristics, and X-ray or near-IR excess emission.

An abnormal reddening law R_V,cl_=4.4+/-0.2 was obtained for the stars in the {eta} Carina Nebula using the 141 early-type stars with high proper-motion membership probability (P_{mu}_>=70%). We determined the distance to each cluster and conclude that Tr 14 and Tr 16 have practically the same distance modulus of V_0_-M_V_=12.3+/-0.2mag (d=2.9+/-0.3kpc). The slope of the initial mass function was determined to be {Gamma}=-1.3+/-0.1 for Tr 14, {Gamma}=-1.3+/-0.1 for Tr 16, and {Gamma}=-1.4+/-0.1 for all members in the observed region for the stars with log m>=0.2.

We also estimated the age of the clusters to be about 1-3Myr from the evolutionary stage of evolved stars and low-mass pre-main-sequence stars.
