Low-Mass Stars: Star Formation, Low-Mass Stars: Molecular Clouds

Scientific paper

Regions of massive star formation are easily recognizable because of the presence of bright, often very extended H11 regions. The more quiescent places where only low mass star formation takes place are not so immediately obvious to identify. Most of the low mass star forming regions known today were found in the 1950's, mainly through objective prism surveys for Ha emission stars done by Joy, Herbig, Haro and others. Their results are summarized and supplemented by later findings in a new catalogue by Herbig and Bell (1988), which Iists 742 mainly low mass pre-main-sequence stars. Another recent and rich source of low mass young stars is the IRAS catalogue. IRAS data towards clouds, however, often suffer from source confusion and, in particular, extraction problems because of background emission.
