Jackie BRC 38
Location of BRC 38
I need a picture in my head. I found these helpful. The first is the one Luisa already put up. The 2nd is from APOD (http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap110425.html). The 3rd is from Getman et al. 2006
Information about BRC 38
Bright Rimmed Cloud 38 in IC 1396. Since it is located in the north part of IC 1396 is it often referred to as IC 1396N.
It has a C shape with the southern edge as the brightest part (Pottasch et al. 1956).
Location with intermediate mass protostars, though some (Ogura & Sugitani 1999) suggest there is probably a lot of low mass formation going on too. Wang et al. 2009 believes potential for high mass stars forming here also.
H2 jets found (Saraceno et al. 1996; Nisini et al. 2001)
Herbig-Haro objects found (Repurth et al. 2003
Observed in many wavelengths - it would be good to get the specific wavelengths in each band
- optical (IPHAS, several optical - including Yerkes in the 1950s - coming from Chicago I have to cheer!!),
- infrared (2MASS,
- radio (IRAM & BIMA)
- x-ray
Questions
I am sure there are a lot more!! After fooling around with wiki editing, this is all that is left in my head at present.
1. One IRAS (Infrared Astronomical Satellite) location (IRAS 21391+5802) seems to be the central point or at least this location that keeps coming up. What is this?
2. LWS spectrum - is this as simple as long wavelength?
3. Still unclear on what exactly the following are. I have looked them up but they are not clear in my head - maser, Herbig-Haro objects, FIR colors, MIP colors
4. When we talk about BRC 38, are we talking about the whole C rim and globular area it half encircles? Where does the IRAS source 21391+5802 fit in our picture?
5. Is submillimeter wavelengths (SUBA) infrared or microwave?
6. Is HD 206267 affecting the whole region with its radiation?

Morgan L. K., Urquhart J. S., Thompson M.

(see Resolution and their fig 2 here.) Likely last of his thesis, or first of his postdoc. (Look, his address changed, so this was published while he was a postdoc, but it's the same collaborators as before at his old institution, so my guess it's leftover thesis work.) They think 27 has been triggered, 34 not; this provides a nice compare-and-contrast opportunity for our write-up. Quick read. | 2009, MNRAS, 400, 1726 |

Forward reference to Spitzer data analysis like ours but then says have already looked for GLIMPSE, 24 um obs. They are only looking at low-res flux densities. Appendix may be useful for scavenging additional targets if we want to do more analysis on more targets. | 2008, A&A, 477, 557 |

Luisa's notes: 22.2 GHz (=1.35 cm if I did my math right). Really nice intro summarizing the big picture. Following up on Morgan and similar work asserting high-mass stars forming in BRCs by looking for masers. Our objects observed, not detected. Finding lots of non-detections, suggesting that low-mass stars forming instead. Nice, short writeup of basically a non-result, and I think they've gotten the interpretation spot-on. | 2005, A&A, 443, 535 |
