YSOs search in Stock 8 with opt. to IR photom.
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
The evolution of H II regions/supershells can trigger a new generation of stars/clusters at their peripheries, with environmental conditions that may affect the initial mass function, disk evolution, and star formation efficiency.
Description
In this paper we study the stellar content and star formation processes in the young cluster Stock 8, which itself is thought to be formed during the expansion of a supershell. We present deep optical photometry along with JHK and 3.6 and 4.5{mu}m photometry from UKIDSS and Spitzer-IRAC.
We use multicolor criteria to identify the candidate young stellar objects in the region. Using evolutionary models, we obtain a median log(age) of ~6.5 (~3.0Myr) with an observed age spread of ~0.25dex for the cluster. Monte Carlo simulations of the population of Stock 8, based on estimates for the photometric uncertainty, differential reddening, binarity, and variability, indicate that these uncertainties introduce an age spread of ~0.15dex.

The intrinsic age spread in the cluster is ~0.2dex. The fraction of young stellar objects surrounded by disks is ~35%. The K-band luminosity function of Stock 8 is similar to that of the Trapezium cluster.
The initial mass function (IMF) of Stock 8 has a Salpeter-like slope at >0.5M_{Sun}_ and flattens and peaks at ~0.4M_{Sun}_, below which it declines into the substellar regime. Although Stock 8 is surrounded by several massive stars, there seems to be no severe environmental effect in the form of the IMF due to the proximity of massive stars around the cluster.
