Shure, Mark Pipher, Judith L. Okuda, Haruyuki Near-IR broad-band images at K, L-prime, and M-prime, maps L, N, are presented for a peculiar IR quintuplet source along line of sight toward center Radio Arc. The five members have very red energy distribution. Most likely complex is center, not merely projection foreground stars. location this group bright ridge structure in 'Radio Arc' suggests possible association with that region. If truly located close to sources luminosities comparable those giants or supergiants, although they do seem be cluster OB- M-type Publication: Astrophysical Journal Pub Date: March 1990 DOI: 10.1086/168446 Bibcode: 1990ApJ...351...83N Keywords: Early Stars; Nuclei; Sources (Astronomy); Nebulae; Red Giant Spatial Distribution; Spectral Energy Stellar Luminosity; Astrophysics; GALAXIES: NUCLEI; INFRARED: SOURCES; NEBULAE: INDIVIDUAL ALPHANUMERIC: 2004 full text ADS | data products SIMBAD (16)
