Beginning of ReadMe : J/AJ/148/11 Infrared photometry in Cygnus-X (Kryukova+, 2014) ================================================================================ The dependence of protostellar luminosity on environment in the Cygnus-X star-forming complex. Kryukova E., Megeath S.T., Hora J.L., Gutermuth R.A., Bontemps S., Kraemer K., Hennemann M., Schneider N., Smith H.A., Motte F. <Astron. J., 148, 11 (2014)> =2014AJ....148...11K ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: YSOs ; Photometry, infrared Keywords: infrared: stars - stars: formation - stars: luminosity function, mass function - stars: protostars Abstract: The Cygnus-X star-forming complex is one of the most active regions of low- and high-mass star formation within 2kpc of the Sun. Using mid-infrared photometry from the IRAC and MIPS Spitzer Cygnus-X Legacy Survey, we have identified over 1800 protostar candidates. We compare the protostellar luminosity functions of two regions within Cygnus-X: CygX-South and CygX-North. These two clouds show distinctly different morphologies suggestive of dissimilar star-forming environments. We find the luminosity functions of these two regions are statistically different. Furthermore, we compare the luminosity functions of protostars found in regions of high and low stellar density within Cygnus-X and find that the luminosity function in regions of high stellar density is biased to higher luminosities. In total, these observations provide further evidence that the luminosities of protostars depend on their natal environment. We discuss the implications this dependence has for the star formation process. Description: The Cygnus-X complex was the target of the Cygnus-X Spitzer Legacy Survey (http://irsa.ipac.caltech.edu/data/SPITZER/Cygnus-X/), which mapped 24deg^2^ of the complex with the IRAC and MIPS instruments on board the Spitzer Space Telescope. We used IRAC aperture photometry and MIPS 24mum point-spread function (PSF) photometry from Data Release 1 Point Source Catalog.
