SPYGLASS. II. Cepheus Far North candidate members
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
Young stellar populations provide a record of past star formation, and by establishing their members' dynamics and ages, it is possible to reconstruct the full history of star formation events.
Description
Gaia has greatly expanded the number of accessible stellar populations, with one of the most notable recently discovered associations being Cepheus Far North (CFN), a population containing hundreds of members spanning over 100pc.
With its proximity (d<~200pc), apparent substructure, and relatively small population, CFN represents a manageable population to study in depth, with enough evidence of internal complexity to produce a compelling star formation story. Using Gaia astrometry and photometry combined with additional spectroscopic observations, we identify over 500 candidate CFN members spread across seven subgroups. Combining ages from isochrones, asteroseismology, dynamics, and lithium depletion, we produce well-constrained ages for all seven subgroups, revealing a largely continuous 10Myr star formation history in the association.

By tracing back the present-day populations to the time of their formation, we identify two spatially and dynamically distinct nodes in which stars form, one associated with {beta} Cephei, which shows mostly co-spatial formation, and one associated with EE Draconis with a more dispersed star formation history. This detailed view of star formation demonstrates the complexity of the star formation process, even in the smallest of regions.
