- Description:
- Using all available proper-motion and radial-velocity data, including new radial-velocity observations obtained for this investigation, probable members of the open cluster NGC 752 have been identified. Photoelectric data on six systems have been transformed and collated to form an internally consistent sample on the BV system. Binaries have been identified using photometric and radial-velocity data, including a photographic survey for variability and the radial-velocity observations of this study. Analysis of the data leads to the following cluster parameters and their probable errors: E(B-V) = 0.035+/-0.005mag, Fe/H = -0.15+/-0.05dex, and (m-M) = 8.25+/-0.10mag. The spread in color among stars in the color-magnitude diagram (CMD) along the main sequence from the turnoff to the unevolved main sequence is the consequence of a rich population of binaries. Due to its age and the comprehensive data available for the cluster, NGC 752 provides an ideal test of a variety of evolutionary phenomena. Comparison with theoretical isochrones normalized in an internally consistent manner leads to the conclusion that the morphology and distribution of stars in the CMD can best be matched using models that include convective overshoot, particularly those of Schaller et al. (1992A&AS...96..269S). Despite their differences, the traditional and the overshoot isochrones both imply very similar ages, 1.9+/-0.2Gyr and 1.7+/-0.1Gyr, respectively, for the cluster.

- Description:
- We present the stellar and substellar mass function (MF) of the open cluster IC 2391, plus its radial dependence, and use this to put constraints on the formation mechanism of brown dwarfs (BDs). Our multi-band optical and infrared photometric survey with spectroscopic follow-up covers 11deg^2^, making it the largest survey of this cluster to date. From our preliminary spectroscopic follow-up, to confirm BD status and cluster membership, we find that all candidates are M dwarfs (in either the field or the cluster), demonstrating the efficiency of our photometric selection method in avoiding contaminants (e.g., red giants). About half of our photometric candidates for which we have spectra are spectroscopically confirmed as cluster members; two are new spectroscopically confirmed BD members of IC 2391.

- Description:
- We use CCD and photoelectric photometry with Stromgren filters along with medium resolution spectra to investigate NGC 6520, an open cluster very nearly in the direction of the galactic center. We find an age of 60Myr, a distance of 2kpc, and an average reddening E(b-y)=0.295, which increases toward the south. The average heliocentric radial velocity of the B stars is -29km/s, while the velocity of the nearby Barnard 86 is about 0 (heliocentric; -11km/s compared to the LSR). This velocity difference amounts to about 1.8kpc since the cluster formed, implying that it is extremely doubtful NGC6520 is related to Barnard 86.

- Description:
- We present new photometric and spectroscopic data of the old open cluster Czernik 30. Wide field BVI photometry allows us to correct for the high field contamination by statistical subtraction to produce a color-magnitude diagram (CMD) that clearly reveals the cluster sequence. From spectra of stars in the cluster field obtained with the Hydra spectrograph on the Wisconsin-Indiana-Yale-NOAO 3.5m telescope we determine a mean cluster velocity of +79.9+/-1.5km/s and provide membership information that helps further define the cluster giant branch and red clump. Stellar abundances for the brighter giants in the cluster indicate a mean metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.2+/-0.15. Fitting theoretical isochrones to the CMD we determine the following properties of Czernik 30: age=2.8+/-0.3Gyr, (m-M)_v_=14.8+/-0.1, E(B-V)=0.24+/-0.06, and E(V-I)=0.36+/-0.04. Czernik 30 is an old, sub-solar metallicity cluster located at a Galactocentric radius of R_gc_~13.3kpc. Given its age and position just beyond the transition to a flat abundance gradient seen in the open cluster population, Czernik 30 provides an interesting target for future observations.

- Description:
- We present the results of a 0.86 square degree CCD photometric survey of the open cluster NGC 2516, which has an age of about 150Myr and may have a much lower metallicity than the similarly-aged Pleiades. Our BVI_c_ survey of cluster members is complete to V~20 and is used to select a preliminary catalogue of 1254 low mass (0.<M<2.0M_{sun}_) cluster candidates, of which about 70-80 percent are expected to be genuine. After applying corrections for contamination by non-members and adding data for higher mass stars from the literature, we investigate the cluster binarity, luminosity and mass function, mass segregation and total mass. We find a binary fraction of 26+/-5%, for A to M-type systems with mass ratios between 0.6 and 1, which is very similar to the Pleiades.

- Description:
- The study presents photoelectric photometry of stars in NGC 5822 on the UBVR and DDO systems. The BV data are employed to calibrate a photographic survey of the cluster, while UBV and DDO data are used to constrain the cluster reddening and metallicity. Taken in conjunction with previous photometric analysis, it is found that the cluster has a reddening of 0.15+/-0.015(pe) as defined for the stars at the turnoff, and a metallicity relative to the sun of -0.15+/-0.05(pe).

- Photometry & Li abund. of cool dwarfs in M35
- Short Name:
- J/AJ/156/37
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- Hydra spectra of 85 G-K dwarfs in the young cluster M35 near the Li 6708 {AA} line region are analyzed. From velocities and Gaia astrometry, 78 are likely single-star members that, combined with previous work, produce 108 members with T_eff_ ranging from 6150 to 4000 K as defined by multicolor, broadband photometry, E(B-V)=0.20, and [Fe/H]=-0.15, though there are indications the metallicity may be closer to solar. The Lithium abundance A(Li) follows a well-delineated decline from 3.15 for the hottest stars to upper limits =<1.0 among the coolest dwarfs. Contrary to earlier work, M35 includes single stars at systematically higher A(Li) than the mean cluster relation. This subset exhibits higher V_ROT_ than the more Li-depleted sample and, from photometric rotation periods, is dominated by stars classed as convective (C); all others are interface (I) stars. The cool, high-Li rapid rotators (RRs) are consistent with models that simultaneously consider rapid rotation and radius inflation; RRs hotter than the Sun exhibit excess Li depletion, as predicted by the models. The A(Li) distribution with color and rotation period, when compared to the Hyades/Praesepe and the Pleiades, is consistent with gyrochronological analysis placing M35's age between the older M34 and younger Pleiades. However, the Pleiades display a more excessive range in A(Li) and rotation period than M35 on the low-Li, slow-rotation side of the distribution, with supposedly younger stars at a given T_eff_ in the Pleiades spinning slower, with A(Li) reduced by more than a factor of four compared to M35.

- Description:
- High-resolution optical UBVRI and H{alpha} images obtained with ALFOSC mounted on the Nordic Optical Telescope (NOT), near-infrared JHK_S_ images obtained with NOTCam at the Nordic Optical Telescope, and VLT/ISAAC images obtained through the H_2_ (2.12{mu}m) filter were all used to make photometric and morphological studies of the point sources and the nebula seen towards Sh2-294. Identification of PMS members was done using three different methods: comparison with isochrones in optical colour-magnitude diagrams and detection of either near-IR excess or H{alpha} emission.

- Description:
- We present the list of candidate members of the young open cluster NGC 6611, selected in a field of view of 33'x34' by the X-rays emission and excesses in infrared bands. X-ray sources without infrared excesses are classified as candidate Class III cluster members; stars with infrared excesses as disk bearing members.
