Zusammenfassung: | Models for the spectral energy distributions of four stellar objects in the bright compact H[alpha] nebula Cep B are constructed. With a high probability, three of them are found to be very young stellar objects of evolutionary class 0/I with ages of 10^sup 4^-10^sup 5^ years, comparable to the kinematic age of the ionization front of the nebula itself. The IRAS 22551+6221 source associated with Cep B is initiated by heated dust. An intermediate-mass (B2-B3) star of evolutionary class III lies at the center of the ionization front. The local density of PMS stars in the immediate neighborhood of the Cep B nebula exceeds that for the cluster as a whole. It is highly probable that this zone is a local source of a new star-formation stage.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT] |
