The interstellar medium and the massive stellar content towards the SNR G18.1-0.1 and neighbouring Hii regions

We perform a multiwavelength study of the SNR G18.1-0.1 and nearby several HII regions (infrared dust bubbles N21 and N22, and the HII regions G018.149-00.283 and G18.197-00.181). Our goal is to provide observational evidence supporting the view that massive stars are usually born in clusters from t...

Our goal is to provide observational evidence supporting the view that massive stars are usually born in clusters from the same molecular cloud, which then produce, along their evolution, different neighbouring objects such as HII regions, interstellar bubbles and supernova remnants (SNRs). We suggest that the objects analysed in this work belong to a same complex located at the distance of about 4 kpc. Using molecular data we inspected the interstellar medium towards this complex and from optical and X-ray observations we looked for OB-type stars in the region. Analysing public 13CO J = 1-0 data we found several molecular structures very likely related to the HII region/SNR complex. We suggest that the molecular gas is very likely being swept and shaped by the expansion of the HII regions. From spectroscopic optical observations obtained with the 2.15-m telescope at CASLEO, Argentina, we discovered three O-type stars very likely exciting the bubbles N21 and N22, and an uncatalogued HII region northwards of bubble N22, respectively. Also we found four B0-5 stars, one towards the bubble N22 and the others within the HII region G18.149-0.283. By inspecting the Chandra Source Catalogue we found two-point X-ray sources and suggest that one of them is an early O-type star. Finally, we inspected the large-scale interstellar medium around this region. We discovered a big molecular shell of about 70 × 28 pc in which the analysed complex appears to be located in its southern border. © 2013 The Authors Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society. 2013 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_00358711_v433_n2_p1619_Paron http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_00358711_v433_n2_p1619_Paron
