NGC 2282 BVI Ha observations

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present the analysis of the stellar content of NGC 2282, a young cluster in the Monoceros constellation, using deep optical BVI and INT Photometric H{alpha} Survey (IPHAS) photometry along with infrared (IR) data from UKIRT Infrared Deep Sky Survey and Spitzer-IRAC.

Description

Based on the stellar surface density analysis using nearest neighbourhood method, the radius of the cluster is estimated as ~3.15-arcmin. From optical spectroscopic analysis of eight bright sources, we have classified three early B-type members in the cluster, which includes, HD 289120, a previously known B2V-type star, a Herbig Ae/Be star (B0.5 Ve) and a B5 V star.

From spectrophotometric analyses, the distance to the cluster has been estimated as ~1.65kpc. The K-band extinction map is estimated using nearest neighbourhood technique, and the mean extinction within the cluster area is found to be A_V_~3.9mag. Using IR colour-colour criteria and H{alpha}-emission properties, we have identified a total of 152 candidate young stellar objects (YSOs) in the region, of which, 75 are classified as Class II, nine are Class I YSOs.

Our YSO catalogue also includes 50 H{alpha}-emission line sources, identified using slitless spectroscopy and IPHAS photometry data. Based on the optical and near-IR colour-magnitude diagram analyses, the cluster age has been estimated to be in the range of 2-5Myr, which is in agreement with the estimated age from disc fraction (~58 per cent). Masses of these YSOs are found to be ~0.1-2.0M_{sun}_.

Spatial distribution of the candidate YSOs shows spherical morphology, more or less similar to the surface density map.
