We present sub-arcsec (FWHM ~ 0.5) J, H, K and L images of a young stellar cluster associated with a candidate massive protostar IRAS22134+5834. The observations reveal a centrally symmetric, flattened cluster enclosing a central dark region. The central dark region is possibly a cavity within the flattened cluster. It is surrounded by a ring composed of 5 bright stars and the candidate massive protostar IRAS22134+5834. We construct JHKL color-color and HK color-magnitude diagrams to identify the young stellar objects and estimate their spectral types. All the bright stars in the ring are found to have intrinsic infrared excess emission and are likely to be early to late B type stars. We estimate an average foreground extinction to the cluster of A_v ~ 5mag and individual extinctions to the bright stars in the range A_v ~ 20-40mag indicating possible cocoons surrounding each massive star. This ring of bright stars is devoid of any HII region. It is surrounded by an embedded cluster making this an example of a (proto)cluster that is in one of the dynamically least relaxed states. These observations are consistent with the recent non-axisymmetric calculations of Li & Nakamura, who present a star formation scenario in which a magnetically subcritical cloud fragments into multiple magnetically supercritical cores, leading to the formation of small stellar groups.

We report on EVN imaging of the 6.7 GHz methanol maser emission from the candidate high-mass protostar G23.657-0.127. The masers originate in a nearly circular ring of 127 mas radius and 12 mas width. The ring structure points at a central exciting o bject which characteristics are typical for a young massive star; its bolometric luminosity is estimated to be <3.2*10^4 L_sun and <1.2*10^5 L_sun for near (5.1 kpc) and far (10.5 kpc) kinematic distances, respectively. However, the spatial geometry of the underlying maser region remains ambiguous. We consider scenarios in which the methanol masers originate in a spherical bubble or in a rotating disc seen nearly face-on.
IRAS 20050+2720 is young star forming region at a distance of 700 pc without apparent high mass stars. We present results of our multiwavelength study of IRAS 20050+2720 which includes observations by Chandra and Spitzer, and 2MASS and UBVRI photomet ry. In total, about 300 YSOs in different evolutionary stages are found. We characterize the distribution of young stellar objects (YSOs) in this region using a minimum spanning tree (MST) analysis. We newly identify a second cluster core, which consists mostly of class II objects, about 10 arcmin from the center of the cloud. YSOs of earlier evolutionary stages are more clustered than more evolved objects. The X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of IRAS 20050+2720 is roughly lognormal, but steeper than the XLF of the more massive Orion nebula complex. IRAS 20050+2720 shows a lower N_H/A_K ratio compared with the diffuse ISM.

We present the spectroscopic confirmation of a $z=2.45$ proto-cluster. Its member galaxies lie within a radius of 1.4Mpc (physical) on the sky and within $Delta v pm 700$km/s along the line of sight. We estimate an overdensity of 10, suggesting that the structure has made the turn-around but is not assembled yet. Comparison to the Millennium simulation suggests that analogous structures evolve into $10^{14}-10^{15}$M$_{odot}$/h type dark matter haloes by $z=0$ qualifying the notion of proto-cluster. The search for the complete census of mock progenitor galaxies at $zsim2.5$ of these massive $z=0$ mock clusters reveals that they are widely spread over areas with a diameter of 3-20Mpc. This suggests that the optical selection of such proto-clusters can result in a rich diversity regarding their $z=0$ descendants. We also searched for signs of environmental differentiation in this proto-cluster. Whilst we see a weak trend for more massive and more quiescent galaxies in the proto-cluster, this is not statistically significant.

A planar ballistic structure is predicted to be highly effective in filtering electron spin from an unpolarized source into two output fluxes with the opposite and practically pure spin polarizations. The operability of the proposed device relies on the peculiar spin-dependent transmission properties of the T-shaped connector in the presence of the Rashba spin-orbit interaction as well as the difference in the dynamic phase gains of the two alternative paths around the ring resonator through upper and lower branches for even and odd eigenmodes.
The distribution of young open clusters in the Galactic plane suggests the existence of the outer ring R1R2 in the Galaxy. The solar position angle theta_b providing the best agreement between the observed and model distribution is theta_b=35 +- 10 d egrees. We compared the theta_b values derived from three different catalogues of open cluster and they appear to be consistent within the errors.
