IRAC observations of IC 1795

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present a deep Spitzer/Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) survey of the OB association IC 1795 carried out to investigate the evolution of protoplanetary disks in regions of massive star formation.

Description

Combining Spitzer/IRAC data with Chandra/Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer observations, we find 289 cluster members. An additional 340 sources with an infrared excess, but without X-ray counterpart, are classified as cluster member candidates.

Both surveys are complete down to stellar masses of about 1M_{sun}_. We present pre-main-sequence isochrones computed for the first time in the Spitzer/IRAC colors. The age of the cluster, determined via the location of the Class III sources in the [3.6]-[4.5]/[3.6] color-magnitude diagram, is in the range of 3-5Myr.

As theoretically expected, we do not find any systematic variation in the spatial distribution of disks within 0.6pc of either O-type star in the association. However, the disk fraction in IC 1795 does depend on the stellar mass: sources with masses >2M_{sun}_ have a disk fraction of ~20%, while lower mass objects (2-0.8M_{sun}_) have a disk fraction of ~50%. This implies that disks around massive stars have a shorter dissipation timescale.
