The total mapped areas are 2.5 deg^2^ with IRAC and 10.47 deg^2^ with MIPS. This giant molecular cloud is one of two in the nearby Gould Belt of star-forming regions, the other being the Orion A Molecular Cloud (OMC). We compare source counts, colors, and magnitudes in our observed region to a subset of the SWIRE data that was processed through our pipeline. Using color-magnitude and color-color diagrams, we find evidence for a substantial population of 166 young stellar objects (YSOs) in the cloud, many of which were previously unknown. Most of this population is concentrated around the LkH{alpha} 101 cluster and the filament extending from it. We present a quantitative description of the degree of clustering and discuss the relative fraction of YSOs in earlier (Class I and F) and later (Class II) classes compared to other clouds. We perform simple SED modeling of the YSOs with disks to compare the mid-IR properties to disks in other clouds and identify 14 classical transition disk candidates. Although the AMC is similar in mass, size, and distance to the OMC, it is forming about 15-20 times fewer stars.</description><source format="bibcode">2014ApJ...786...37B</source><referenceURL>https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/ApJ/786/37</referenceURL><type>Catalog</type><contentLevel>Research</contentLevel><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/TAP">TAP VizieR generic service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>IsServedBy</relationshipType><relatedResource>Conesearch service</relatedResource></relationship><relationship><relationshipType>related-to</relationshipType><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/680/495">J/ApJ/680/495 : Survey of Interstellar clouds in the Gould belt</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/185/198">J/ApJS/185/198 : The Cepheus flare observed with IRAC and MIPS (Kirk+, 2009)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/194/43">J/ApJS/194/43 : YSOs candidates and knots in CrA cloud (Peterson+, 2011)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJ/764/133">J/ApJ/764/133 : Auriga-California giant molecular cloud (Harvey+, 2013)</relatedResource><relatedResource ivo-id="ivo://CDS.VizieR/J/ApJS/220/11">J/ApJS/220/11 : SEDs of Spitzer YSOs in the Gould Belt (Dunham+, 2015)</relatedResource></relationship></content><rights>https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.html</rights><capability><interface xsi:type="vr:WebBrowser"><accessURL use="full">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/786/37</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/786/37</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/ApJ/786/37</mirrorURL></interface></capability><capability><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/786/37</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/786/37</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/ApJ/786/37</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface></capability><capability standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/TAP#aux"><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tap</accessURL></interface></capability><capability xsi:type="cs:ConeSearch" standardID="ivo://ivoa.net/std/ConeSearch"><description>Cone search capability for table J/ApJ/786/37/sample (YSOs (table 4) and YSO Candidates (table 5)in the AMC Based on WISE and MIPS)</description><interface xsi:type="vs:ParamHTTP" role="std"><accessURL use="base">https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/786/37/sample?</accessURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at IUCAA: Pune, India">https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/786/37/sample?</mirrorURL><mirrorURL title="VizieR at SAAO: SAAO, South Africa">http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/ApJ/786/37/sample?</mirrorURL><queryType>GET</queryType><resultType>text/xml+votable</resultType></interface><maxSR>180.0</maxSR><maxRecords>50000</maxRecords><verbosity>true</verbosity><testQuery><ra>60.3522917</ra><dec>41.0302778</dec><sr>0.005555555555555556</sr></testQuery></capability><coverage><spatial>5/401 6/1231 1242 1253 1261 1262 1263 1264 1266 1272 1274 1613 1636</spatial><footprint ivo-id="ivo://ivoa.net/std/moc">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/ApJ/786/37?format=ascii</footprint><waveband>Infrared</waveband></coverage><tableset><schema><name>default</name><table><name>J/ApJ/786/37/sample</name><description>YSOs (table 4) and YSO Candidates (table 5)in the AMC Based on WISE and MIPS</description><column><name>_DE</name><description>Position from Name (declination part)</description><unit>deg</unit><ucd>pos.eq.dec;meta.main</ucd></column><column><name>recno</name><description>Record number assigned by the VizieR team.
