Scientific paper

We propose to use a 60-ksec ACIS pointing centered on the young, dense, massive OB cluster Trumpler 14 as a testbed for understanding recent and ongoing star formation in the Carina star-forming complex. Our goals are: to untangle the relative contributions to the X-ray emission from high mass vs. intermediate/low mass stars, embedded vs. unobscured stars, and stars vs. diffuse shock emission from OB winds, supernova remnants, or HII region shocks; to study X-rays from stars associated with CO clumps and embedded stellar clusters; and to examine the relationships between the X-ray luminosity function (LF), K-band LF, and theoretical initial mass function over a wide range (tenths to tens of solar masses).
