Wide Field View of R Corona Australis
January 25, 2013
This is a slightly wider view of the R Corona Australis star-forming region, this time seen in X-ray energies captured by ESA's XMM-Newton observatory. The six blue sources are protostars. The Class 0 protostar that Kenji Hamaguchi's team observed in X rays is labeled IRS7B.
