NGC 2580 and NGC 2588 : Two open clusters in the Third Galactic Quadrant ⋆ , ⋆ ⋆
We present CCD broad band photometric observations in the fields of the Third Galactic Quadrant open clusters NGC 2580 and NGC 2588 (V (I)C and UBV (RI)C respectively). From the analysis of our data we found that NGC 2580 is located at a distance of about 4 kpc and its age is close to 160 Myr. As for NGC 2588, it is placed at about 5 kpc from the Sun and is 450 Myr old. This means that NGC 2588...
متن کاملGalactic Open Clusters
The study of open clusters has a classic feel to it since the subject predates anyone alive today. Despite the age of this topic, I show via an ADS search that its relevance and importance in astronomy has grown faster in the last few decades than astronomy in general. This is surely due to both technical reasons and the interconnection of the field of stellar evolution to many branches of astr...
متن کاملDetection of a young stellar population in the background of open clusters in the Third Galactic Quadrant
We report the detection of a young stellar population (≤100 Myrs) in the background of 9 young open clusters belonging to a homogenoeous sample of 30 star clusters in the Third Galactic Quadrant (at 217 ≤ l ≤ 260). Deep and accurate UBVRI photometry allows us to measure model-independent age and distance for the clusters and the background population with high confidence. Astronomy Department, ...
متن کاملProperties of five low - contrast open clusters in the third quadrant
We derive photometric, structural and dynamical evolution-related parameters of five as yet unstudied low-contrast open clusters located in the third quadrant using 2MASS data. The target clusters are Czernik 31, Czernik 32, Haffner 9, Haffner 11 and Trumpler 13. We apply a statistical field-star decontamination procedure to infer on the intrinsic colour-magnitude diagram (CMD) morphology which...
متن کاملGravitational tidal effects on galactic open clusters
We have investigated the 2–D stellar distribution in the outer parts of three nearby open clusters: NGC 2287 (≡M41), NGC 2516, and NGC 2548 (≡M48). Wide-field star counts have been performed in two colours on pairs of digitized ESO and SRC Schmidt plates, allowing us to select likely cluster members in the colour-magnitude diagrams. Cluster tidal extensions were emphasized using a wavelet trans...
