AbstractWe present an analysis of a sample of clusters of young stars in order to investigate the inherent properties of clustering and dynamic evolution of stellar components, based on fractal statistics. In addition, we present the application of new mathematical and numerical techniques with potentiality for use in models of filamentary structures.

We present a new method for finding associations of young stars in M31 using broadband WFPC2 data from the HST data archive. Applying our identification method to 13 WFPC2 fields, covering an area of ∼60 arcmin2, has revealed 80 new candidate young star clusters in these portions of the M31 disk. Most of these clusters are small (≳5 pc) young (∼10–200 Myr) star groups located within large OB associations. We have estimated the reddening values and the ages of each candidate individually by fitting isochrones to the stellar photometry. We provide a catalogue of the candidates including rough approximations of their reddenings and ages.

AbstractItems of scientific knowledge at any moment in time have pre-histories when they were debated, doubted, or absolutely denied. The examples considered here are the admitted facts that star formation is an on-going process in the Milky Way, that there are young moving groups (the products of young star clusters in the process of dissolution and perhaps more complex processes), and that planets orbiting other stars are common. It is hard to imagine any of these ceasing to be part of core astronomical knowledge, but you are advised not to place large bets on this.
