Arches cluster JVLA 6 and 10GHz images

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present high angular resolution radio observations of the Arches cluster in the Galactic centre, one of the most massive young clusters in the Milky Way.

Description

The data were acquired in two epochs and at 6 and 10 GHz with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA). The rms noise reached is 3-4 times better than previous observations and we have almost doubled the number of known radio stars in the cluster.

Nine of them have spectral indices consistent with thermal emission from ionised stellar winds. One is a confirmed wind colliding binary and two sources are ambiguous cases. Regarding variability, the radio emission appears to be stable on time scales of a few to ten years.

Finally, we have showed that the number of radio stars can be used as a tool for constraining the age or mass of a cluster and also its mass function.
