“Stephenson 2”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

26 red supergiants have been confirmed as members of the cluster, far more than any other known cluster. A more recent study has identified around 80 red supergiants in the line of sight of Stephenson 2, approximately 40 of them with radial velocities consistent with being cluster members. However these stars are spread over a wider area than a typical cluster, indicating an extended stellar association similar to that found around the nearby cluster RSGC3.^[2]

The age of Stephenson 2 is estimated at 14–20 million years. The observed red supergiants with the mass of about 12–16 solar masses are type II supernova progenitors. The cluster is heavily obscured and have not been detected in the visible light. It lies close to other groupings of red super giants known as RSGC1, RSGC3 and Alicante 8.^[15] The mass of the open cluster is estimated at 30–50 thousand solar masses, which makes it the second most massive open cluster in the Galaxy.{{citation needed|date=August 2015}}

It was discovered in 1990 in the data obtained by a deep infrared survey.^[12] The cluster is located in the constellation Scutum at the distance of about 6 kpc from the Sun. It is likely situated at the intersection of the northern end of the Long Bar of the Milky Way and the inner portion of the Scutum–Centaurus Arm—one of the two major spiral arms. 26 red supergiants have been confirmed as members of the cluster, far more than any other known cluster. A more recent study has identified around 80 red supergiants in the line of sight of Stephenson 2, approximately 40 of them with radial velocities consistent with being cluster members.
