Young stars and clouds in Camelopardalis
V. Straizys, V. Laugalys

TL;DR
This paper reviews recent star formation activity in the Camelopardalis region, highlighting the distribution of young stars and molecular clouds within the Local spiral arm and their relation to Galactic structure.
Contribution
It provides a detailed overview of the spatial distribution and characteristics of young stars and molecular clouds in Camelopardalis, emphasizing their placement within the Local arm and their relation to Galactic features.
Findings
Presence of the Cam OB1 association indicating active star formation
Dense dust and molecular clouds contain young stellar objects
Clouds are concentrated in two layers at 150-300 pc and around 900 pc
Abstract
Star formation in the Local spiral arm in the direction of the Galactic longitudes 132--158 deg is reviewed. Recent star-forming activity in this Milky Way direction is evidenced by the presence here of the Cam OB1 association and dense dust and molecular clouds containing H emission stars, young irregular variables and infrared stellar objects. The clouds of the Local arm concentrate in two layers at 150-300 pc and at about 900 pc from the Sun. The Perseus arm objects in this direction are at a distance of about 2 kpc.
