Star Formation in the Most Distant Molecular Cloud in the Extreme Outer Galaxy: A Laboratory of Star Formation in an Early Epoch of the Galaxy's Formation
Naoto Kobayashi, Chikako Yasui, Alan T. Tokunaga +1
We report the discovery of active star formation in Digel's Cloud 2, which is one of the most distant giant molecular clouds known in the extreme outer Galaxy (EOG). At the probabl…
Extreme Outer Galaxy: A Laboratory of Star Formation in an Early Epoch of Galaxy Formation
Naoto Kobayashi, Chikako Yasui, Alan T. Tokunaga +1
The extreme outer Galaxy (EOG) has a very different environment from that in the solar neighborhood, with low metallicity (less than -0.5 dex), much lower gas density, and small or…
Star Formation in the Extreme Outer Galaxy: the IMF in a low metallicity environment
Chikako Yasui, Naoto Kobayashi, Alan T. Tokunaga +2
We are conducting a deep near-infrared (NIR) imaging survey of young embedded clusters in the extreme outer Galaxy (hereafter EOG), at the Galactic radius (R_g) of more than 18 kpc…
Star Formation in the Extreme Outer Galaxy: Digel Cloud 2 Clusters
Chikako Yasui, Naoto Kobayashi, Alan T. Tokunaga +2
As a first step for studying star formation in the extreme outer Galaxy (EOG), we obtained deep near-infrared images of two embedded clusters at the northern and southern CO peaks…
Deep Near-Infrared Imaging af an Embedded Cluster in the Extreme Outer Galaxy: Census of Supernovae Triggered Star Formation
Chikako Yasui, Naoto Kobayashi, Alan T. Tokunaga +2
While conducting a near-infrared (NIR) survey of ``Digel Clouds'', which are thought to be located in the extreme outer Galaxy (EOG), Kobayashi & Tokunaga found star formation acti…
