- Description:
- This catalog is the result of a program of photographic photometry. Four plates each were taken of M67 in U, B, and V, and were measured and reduced using the standards of Johnson and Sandage (1955) and Eggen and Sandage (1964). The catalog lists identification, V, B-V, U-B, proper motion, and membership probability for 1,053 stars.

- Description:
- We report UBV photoelectric photometry for 273 stars in the fields of the open clusters IC 2395 and BH 47. Our postulate is that, rather than two different clusters in this region of Vela, there is only one, which we call IC 2395 = BH 47. The cluster is centered at about RA = 8h 42min 33s, and DE = -48{deg} 06' 48" (2000), its angular diameter being ~19'. The analysis of the photometric data yields 61 probable cluster members and 16 possible members. Photometric membership probabilities show good agreement with those obtained from a proper motion study for 21 stars in common. The reddening across the cluster appears to be uniform, the mean E(B-V) value being 0.09+/-0.02. The true distance modulus is V_0_-Mv=9.52+/-0.10, corresponding to a distance from the Sun of (800+/-40)pc and 48pc below the Galactic plane. The cluster age, determined by fitting isochrones with core overshooting, turns out to be (6+/-2)Myr. There is a strong likelihood that IC 2395 = BH 47 is physically connected to the Vela OB1C association.

- Description:
- UBV and DDO photoelectric photometry in the field of the open cluster NGC 2323 is presented. The analysis yields 109 probable members; one of them being a red giant, and 3 possible members. The basic cluster parameters are derived. NGC 2323 appears not to be physically connected to the CMa OB1 association.

- UBV photometry of stars in Berkeley 55
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/143/46
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present UBV photometry of the highly reddened and poorly studied open cluster Berkeley 55 (= C 2115+515), revealing an important population of B-type stars and several evolved stars of high luminosity. Intermediate-resolution far-red spectra of several candidate members confirm the presence of one F-type supergiant and six late supergiants or bright giants. The brightest blue stars are mid-B giants. Spectroscopic and photometric analyses indicate an age 50+/-10Myr. The cluster is located at a distance d~4kpc, consistent with other tracers of the Perseus Arm in this direction. Berkeley 55 is thus a moderately young open cluster with a sizable population of candidate red (super)giant members, which can provide valuable information about the evolution of intermediate-mass stars.

- UBVRI and H{alpha} in NGC 6530
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/120/333
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- New UBVRI and H{alpha} photometry has been obtained for the young open cluster NGC 6530 located 10' east of the Lagoon Nebula (M8). We found 37 pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars with H{alpha} emission and nine PMS candidates using the R-H{alpha} color, a measure of H{alpha} emission. From this new photometry we derived the cluster parameters (V_0_-M_V_=11.25+/-0.1mag and E(B-V)=0.35mag), typical age (1.5Myr), and an age spread of about 5Myr. We confirmed the presence of a small amount of differential reddening across the cluster. We also verified the abnormal reddening law for the cluster, especially for a heavily embedded O7 V star, Herschel 36. Comparisons were made for several PMS evolution models with regard to the resulting age distribution and the initial mass function.

- UBVRI and infrared photometry of NGC 2215

- Description:
- Optical UBVRI photometric measurements using the Faulkes Telescope North were taken in early 2011 and combined with 2MASS JHK_s_ and WISE infrared photometry as well as UCAC4 proper motion data in order to estimate the main parameters of the galactic open cluster NGC 2215 of which large uncertainty exists in the current literature. Fitting a King model we estimate a core radius of 1.12'+/-0.04'(0.24+/-0.01pc) and a limiting radius of 4.3'+/-0.5'(0.94+/-0.11pc) for the cluster. The results of isochrone fits indicates an age of log(t)=8.85+/-0.10 with a distance of d=790+/-90pc, a metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.40+/-0.10dex, and a reddening of E(B-V)=0.26+/-0.04. A proportion of the work in this study was undertaken by Australian and Canadian upper secondary school students involved in the Space to Grow astronomy education project, and is the first scientific publication to have utilized our star cluster photometry curriculum materials.

- UBVRI and polarisation in Lynga 1
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present CCD UBVRI (Cousins system) photometric observations complemented with spectroscopy and polarimetric observations that were carried out in the open cluster Lynga 1. Our data indicate that the cluster reddening is E_B-V_=0.45+/-0.03, the ratio A_v_/E_B-V_=R suggests that the extinction law may be slightly anomalous (R~3.5) and that the cluster distance modulus is V_0_-M_v=11.40+/-0.2. The age of Lynga 1 is between 100 and 125Myr according to a fitting of theoretical isochrones, and the slope of its mass spectrum is x~1.7. The brightest red star in the field is a cluster member of spectral type K2 II-Ib.

- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present an optical and near-infrared study of a 45'x45' field in NGC 2264, which includes both S Mon and the Cone Nebula. We report photometry at optical (UBVR_C_I_C_) and near-infrared (JHK) wavelengths for ~600 stars and spectroscopic classifications for ~400 of these stars. We identify circumstellar disk candidates using three techniques: excess ultraviolet (U-V) emission, excess near-IR (I-K and H-K) emission, and H{alpha} emission-line equivalent widths for those stars with spectra. We find generally good correlation between disk indicators thought to originate from different physical processes. We find little if any evolution of disk fraction with stellar age or mass. However, when we derive mass accretion rates (dM/dt) from the excess emission at U, we find that dM/dt decreases with age over the age range spanned by our data, ~0.15 Myr, and increases with mass over the range ~0.25-1M_{sun}_. These findings are comparable to results found previously by us in the Orion Nebula cluster flanking fields.

- UBVRI CCD photometry in NGC 188
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We present high-precision UBVRI CCD photometry of the old open cluster NGC 188. Our color-magnitude diagram extends from near the red giant branch tip to as faint as ~5mag below the main-sequence turnoff. From an analysis of these data along with published photometry for M67, we draw the following conclusions: (1) From the UBV two-color diagram, we find a reddening of E(B-V)=0.04+/-0.02 for M67 and E(B-V)=0.09+/-0.02 for NGC 188. (2) Based on main-sequence fitting to solar abundance isochrones, the distance moduli turn out to be (m-M)v=9.69+/-0.11 for M67 and (m-M)v=11.44+/-0.08 for NGC 188. (3) The comparison of the CMDs to theoretical isochrones indicates that an amount of core convective overshoot equivalent to 0.10 of a pressure scale height is appropriate for M67, while no overshoot is required to fit the CMD of NGC 188. These isochrones suggest that NGC 188 is 3.0+/-0.7 Gyr older than M67. (4) There is a clear indication of mass segregation in both M67 and NGC 188, with the most massive stars (M/M_{sun}_>1.1) being more centrally concentrated than those that are the least massive (0.8>=M/M_{sun}_>0.65).
