Photometry of dissolving star cluster candidates
We present CCD UBVI observations obtained in the field of the two previously unstudied dissolving open cluster candidates NGC 7036 and NGC 7772. Our analysis suggests that both the objects are Open Cluster Remnants (OCR). NGC 7036 is an open cluster remnant with a core radius of about 3-4 arcmin. We derive for the first time estimates of its fundamental parameters. We identify 17 likely members...
متن کاملDissolving star cluster candidates
We present a list of 34 neglected entries from star cluster catalogues located at relatively high galactic latitudes (|b| > 15) which appear to be candidate late stages of star cluster dynamical evolution. Although underpopulated with respect to usual open clusters, they still present a high number density contrast as compared to the galactic field. This was verified by means of (i) predicted m...
متن کاملStar cluster ecology IVa: Dissection of an open star cluster—photometry
The evolution of star clusters is studied using N-body simulations in which the evolution of single stars and binaries are taken self-consistently into account. Initial conditions are chosen to represent relatively young Galactic open clusters, such as the Pleiades, Praesepe and the Hyades. The calculations include a realistic mass function, primordial binaries and the external potential of the...
متن کاملGeneva photometry of the open cluster NGC 2451 and its exceptional Be star HR 2968 ? , ? ?
During many years, several authors discussed whether NGC 2451 was a real open star cluster or not. By using parallaxes and proper motions from Hipparcos satellite, and Geneva multicolour photometric measurements of 64 stars, the existence of two clusters A and B is confirmed. Distances and Geneva colour excesses E[B − V ] are respectively 197 pc, 0.01 and 358 pc, 0.12 for NGC 2451 A and B. The ...
متن کاملBe star surveys with CCD photometry . II . NGC 1818 and its neighbouring cluster in the LMC ⋆
As part of an ongoing photometric survey of young Magellanic Cloud clusters we identified Be stars in NGC 1818 and a nearby smaller cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud. The neighbouring cluster does not appear to contain any evolved stars, and its sparsely populated main sequence does not extend to stars as massive as in NGC 1818. Both clusters are younger than the surrounding field populatio...
