Abstract:
We present the results of deep near-infrared observations searching
for very low mass young stellar objects (YSOs) in the massive
star-forming region of S106 taken with the Subaru Telescope. The
survey, whose limiting magnitude exceeds 20mag in the JHK' bands, is
sensitive enough to provide unprecedented details in the two nebular
lobes. In addition, it reveals a census of the stellar population down
to objects below the deuterium-burning limit, a fiducial boundary
between brown dwarfs and planetary-mass objects. Based on color-color
diagrams, nearly 600 embedded YSO candidates with near-infrared
excesses have been identified in an area of ∼5'x5' that are not
uniformly distributed but centrally concentrated.
Description:
The JHK' imaging observations of the S106 region were carried out on
1999 May 25 and June 5-6 using the facility instrument Cooled Infrared
Spectrograph and Camera for OH Suppression (CISCO) mounted on the
Cassegrain focus of the Subaru 8.2m telescope. CISCO is equipped
with a 1024x1024 Rockwell HgCdTe array (HAWAII).
