Discovering young stars in the Gum 31 region with infrared observations
Henrike Ohlendorf, Thomas Preibisch, Benjamin Gaczkowski +4
Context. The Gum 31 bubble containing the stellar cluster NGC 3324 is a poorly-studied young region close to the Carina Nebula. Aims. We are aiming to characterise the young stella…
Herschel far-infrared observations of the Carina Nebula complex II: The embedded young stellar and protostellar population
Benjamin Gaczkowski, Thomas Preibisch, Thorsten Ratzka +3
The Carina Nebula represents one of the largest and most active star forming regions known in our Galaxy with numerous very massive stars.Our recently obtained Herschel PACS & SPIR…
Jet-driving protostars identified from infrared observations of the Carina Nebula complex
Henrike Ohlendorf, Thomas Preibisch, Benjamin Gaczkowski +3
Aims: Jets are excellent signposts for very young embedded protostars, so we want to identify jet-driving protostars as a tracer of the currently forming generation of stars in the…
Detection of a large massive circumstellar disk around a high-mass young stellar object in the Carina Nebula
Thomas Preibisch, Thorsten Ratzka, Tiago Gehring +5
(abbreviated) We investigate the spatial structure and spectral energy distribution of an edge-on circumstellar disk around an optically invisible young stellar object that is embe…
Deep wide-field near-infrared survey of the Carina Nebula
Thomas Preibisch, Thorsten Ratzka, Benjamin Kuderna +7
(abbreviated) We used HAWK-I at the ESO VLT to produce a near-infrared survey of the Carina Nebula that is deep enough to detect the full low-mass stellar population. The results o…
A deep wide-field sub-mm survey of the Carina Nebula complex
Thomas Preibisch, Frederic Schuller, Henrike Ohlendorf +3
The Great Nebula in Carina is a superb location in which to study the physics of violent massive star-formation and the resulting feedback effects, including cloud dispersal and tr…
