Scientific paper

Bright rimmed clouds (BRCs) near OB stars are excellent laboratories for the study of triggered star formation (TSF) due to the radiation driven implosion (RDI) mechanism. Type A BRCs are clouds at their earliest evolutionary stages and, according to the current theoretical modeling, are not expected to exhibit RDI TSF yet. Employing the Chandra's ability to effectively discern young stellar populations from unrelated old field objects we propose to observe the nearby Type A bright rimmed cloud BRC 34 and test predictions of RDI modelling. BRC 34 will also complement our large GO project on BRCs with the aim to study the RDI star formation efficiency in the Galaxy.
