Description
Observations from massive stars in H II regions can help to clarify
theories of massive star formation because they show the degree of
isolation under which massive stars can be formed. We present a new
survey, called 'A-SMASHeR', consisting of massive stars associated to
not yet characterized H II regions that are either more distant or more
heavily embedded than the traditional samples. It will allow us to study
in a homogeneus way many massive stars placed at different distances
between l=30° and 180°, presenting different reddenings and
metallicities. Besides, we will use it to constrain better the theories
of stellar formation and design future observations with MIRADAS.
