Mass Function of a Young Cluster in a Low-metallicity Environment. Sh 2-209
We present deep near-infrared (NIR) imaging of Sh 2–209 (S209), a low-metallicity ([O/H] = −0.5 dex) H ii region in the Galaxy. From the NIR images, combined with astrometric data from Gaia EDR3, we estimate the distance to S209 to be 2.5 kpc. This is close enough to enable us to resolve cluster mem...
