RCW 36 in the Vela Molecular Ridge: Evidence for a high-mass star cluster formation triggered by Cloud-Cloud Collision

Hidetoshi Sano, Rei Enokiya, Katsuhiro Hayashi +21

A collision between two molecular clouds is one possible candidate for high-mass star formation. The HII region RCW 36, located in the Vela molecular ridge, contains a young star c…
