GLIMPSE360: stellar objects photometry and classes

We found that 100 of the clusters identified have previously measured distances in the WISE H II survey. We used these distances in our spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting of the YSOs in these clusters, of which 96 had YSOs with <3{sigma} fits. We used the derived masses from the SED model fits to estimate the initial mass function (IMF) in the inner and outer Galaxy clusters; dividing the clusters by galactocentric distances, the slopes were {Gamma}=1.87{pm}0.31 above 3M_{sun}_ for R_Gal_<11.5kpc and {Gamma}=1.15{pm}0.24 above 3M_{sun} for R_Gal_>11.5kpc.

The slope of the combined IMF was found to be {Gamma}=1.92{pm}0.42 above 3M_{sun}_. These values are consistent with each other within the uncertainties and with literature values in the inner Galaxy high-mass star formation regions. The slopes are likely also consistent with a universal Salpeter IMF.
