Abstract:
We present Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array 1.3, 3.6, and 6cm continuum
maps of compact radio sources in the Orion Nebular Cluster (ONC). We
mosaicked 34arcmin2 at 1.3cm, 70arcmin2 at 3.6cm and 109arcmin2
at 6cm, containing 778 near-infrared detected young stellar objects
and 190 Hubble Space Telescope-identified proplyds (with significant
overlap between those characterizations). We detected radio emission
from 175 compact radio sources in the ONC, including 26 sources that
were detected for the first time at these wavelengths. For each
detected source, we fitted a simple free-free and dust emission model
to characterize the radio emission. We extrapolate the free-free
emission spectrum model for each source to ALMA bands to illustrate
how these measurements could be used to correctly measure
protoplanetary disk dust masses from submillimeter flux measurements.
Finally, we compare the fluxes measured in this survey with previously
measured fluxes for our targets, as well as four separate epochs of
1.3cm data, to search for and quantify the variability of our sources.
Description:
We imaged the Orion Nebular Cluster (ONC) in 1.3, 3.6, and 6cm
wavelength continuum emission with the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array
(JVLA) between 2013 November and 2014 May.
The field of view of the JVLA antenna primary beam at 6cm, FWHM of 9',
encompasses all 778 YSOs from Hillenbrand & Carpenter (2000,
J/ApJ/540/236), and all of the 196 HST-detected proplyds (Ricci+ 2008,
J/AJ/136/2136).
