Abstract

The OrionA GMC is a benchmark for studying star formation. Our goal is

to construct a map of SFR and SFE (with Herschel) across the entire

complex, for which it is critical to have a reliable and complete sample

of YSOs. In this work we present a refined catalogue of YSOs, making use

of a new deep NIR survey with VISTA, complemented with archival data.

The survey allows us to rule out false positives from previous samples

(galaxies, cloud edges, etc.). To add new candidates we use MIR data

from WISE for areas not covered by Spitzer to get a complete census of

the spatial distribution of YSOs.
