Multi-Wavelength Observations of Massive Star Feedback and Triggered Star Formation in the Carina Nebula

Thomas Preibisch
Universitäts-Sternwarte München, München, Germany
The Carina Nebula is an ideal site to study violent high-mass star formation and the effects of massive star feedback, via stellar winds, ionizing radiation, and expanding superbubbles, on their surroundings. I will present first results of an ongoing comprehensive multi-wavelength (X-ray to & sub-mm) observational survey of this important region, that will allow to reveal the full stellar populations, study their ages, mass functions, and disk properties and to probe the morphology, fragmentation, kinematics, and chemistry of the molecular clouds throughout the complex.
