We intend to characterize the stellar population and investigate the conditions of the gas associated with open clusters, aiming to contribute to a better understanding of their dynamic evolution and the evolution of protoplanetary disks. The project is divided into three sub-projects, defined according to our observational data.(i) From multi-objects spectroscopy acquired with the telesc…

Inspired by previous works from our team exploring the dynamical and structural characteristics of several stellar groups in different Galactic regions, our study aims to expand the understanding of star formation, especially in the Canis Major (CMa) OB1/R1 Association. The region offers a unique scenario, where evidence of filamentary structures and correlations between kinematic feature…
The in-depth knowledge of the star formation scenario in OB Associations can bring important clues to better understand the structure and evolution of the Galaxy. In particular, the Canis Major OB1/R1 region, which contains hundreds of young stars associated with the bubble-like distribution named "CMa shell", is very interesting for exploring the supernova (SN) effect on star forming…
We will perform optical spectral lines measurements of T Tauri stars aiming to estimate stellar parameters such as effective temperature, gravity and metallicity. One of the goals is to provide to the student the learning of statistical physics involved in the formation and characterization of spectral lines. Such learning cannot be acquired from the automatic estimates provided by using …
The objective of this project is to study the physical conditions of the gas around young stellar clusters inside the Galaxy, particularly exploring condensing regions properties and the effects of ionization sources (by the presence of massive stars). Previous works of our group has revealed some conspicuous features in the site around many young stellar clusters. The study of fractal st…
Herbig Ae/Be stars are classified in groups according to the slope of their spectral energy distribution (SED) in the infrared region. The steeper is this slope, the greater are the infrared excesses observed and the amount of circumstellar material associated to the object. Some works relate this classification to the evolutive stage of the object, where the most embeded objects (those w…
Studying different scenarios of star formation in OB associations is crucial for understanding the structure and evolution of the Galaxy. The Canis Major OB1/R1 Association (CMa), in particular, hosts hundreds of young stars, and evidence indicates that at least three supernovae (SN) influenced its history. For these reasons, CMa serves as an ideal laboratory for investigating how superno…
