Feedback-driven star formation in the Carina Nebula

Nathan Smith
U. Arizona/Steward Obs., Tucson, USA
I discuss an ongoing study of the Carina Nebula, including results from large projects with Hubble, Spitzer/IRAC and MIPS, and Chandra, plus ground based observations. Carina is an important nearby laboratory for studying the effect of massive star feedback on the surrounding star-forming environment. I will concentrate mainly on the large-scale multi-wavelength structure of the nebula, the physical conditions and YSO content in various regions, and implications for the process of ongoing star formation.
