Improving the open cluster census. I. Comparison of clustering algorithms applied to Gaia DR2 data [PDF]

open access: yesA&A 646, A104 (2021), 2020
The census of open clusters in the Milky Way is in a never-before seen state of flux. Recent works have reported hundreds of new open clusters thanks to the incredible astrometric quality of the Gaia satellite, but other works have also reported that many open clusters discovered in the pre Gaia era may be associations.

Open-cluster density profiles derived using a kernel estimator [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Surface and spatial radial density profiles in open clusters are derived using a kernel estimator method. Formulae are obtained for the contribution of every star into the spatial density profile.

The open cluster Berkeley 53 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2009
AbstractWe present a photometric study of the neglected open cluster Berkeley 53. We derived its fundamental parameters, such as the age, the interstellar reddening, and the distance from the Sun, based on BV photometry combined with near‐infrared JHKS data.

Improving the open cluster census. III. Using cluster masses, radii, and dynamics to create a cleaned open cluster catalogue [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The census of open clusters has exploded in size thanks to data from the Gaia satellite. However, it is likely that many of these reported clusters are not gravitationally bound, making the open cluster census impractical for many scientific applications.

A comparative study on the reliability of open cluster parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Open clusters are known as excellent tracers of the structure and chemical evolution of the Galactic disk, however, the accuracy and reliability of open cluster parameters is poorly known.

A revised moving cluster distance to the Pleiades open cluster [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2017
Context.The distance to the Pleiades open cluster has been extensively debated in the literature over several decades. Although different methods point to a discrepancy in the trigonometric parallaxes produced by the Hipparcosmission, the number of individual stars with known distances is still small compared to the number of cluster members to help ...

Improving the open cluster census. II. An all-sky cluster catalogue with Gaia DR3 [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2023
Data from the Gaia satellite are revolutionising our understanding of the Milky Way. With every new data release, there is a need to update the census of open clusters. We aim to conduct a blind, all-sky search for open clusters using 729 million sources
