• BRC 36 3 articles on ADS two are on star formation but none on SIMBAD

• 3 results from ADS: 1 abstract, 2 Chandra proposals; 0 results from Simbad, however, Aladin applet Simbad identifies (and IRAS-IRIS reveals) 6 YSOs, 10 IR sources, 2 Mol Cld, Rf Neb, Br Neb, Dk Neb, stars in nebulae, and stars in clouds.

• This looks like an interesting field. Lots going on (too much?) ADS: Garmire and Getman are both proposing to use Chandra to study this area. (x-rays)

Using SIMBAD, and searching under coordinates yields 83 objects mostly stars: 17 *iC, 13 TT*, 4 *, 1 **, 8 Y*O, 4 Em*, 1 Or*, 1 *i* (star in double system), 1 *IN (star in nebula), 16 IR sources, 3 smm, 5 Molecular cloud, 2 part of cloud, 1 cloud, 1 dark nebula, 1 bright nebula, 1 reflection nebula, and 1 radio source. One of the molecular clouds is the elephant trunk nebula.--Linahan 13:20, 11 February 2011 (PST)

The elephant trunk nebula has 23 references. Here is a sampling of them.

1. 12 and #75 The two larges sources are both stars with 28 and 24 sources. respectively. Looks like it might be a star in the elephant trunk nebula because they have overlapping sources.

I also came across the the Chandra proposals Chelen noted above. I also came across several papers from a group doing research in the radio. One paper "H2O maser emission from bright rimmed clouds in the northern hemisphere" R. Valdettaro1, F. Palla1, J. Brand2, and R. Cesaroni1 http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0508446v1 . Their other papers 2006RMxAC..26Q.161M and http://iopscience.iop.org/0004-637X/675/2/1352

I also came across this handbook of star forming regions that included BRC36 and a couple of our other targets. http://arxiv.org/PS_cache/arxiv/pdf/0809/0809.4761v1.pdf --Gibbs 19:36, 13 February 2011 (PST)
