Gaia’s detectability of black hole–main sequence star binaries formed in open clusters [PDF]
Nippon Tenmon Gakkai obun kenkyu hokoku, 2020 Black hole–main sequence star (BH–MS) binaries are one of the targets of future data releases of the astrometric satellite Gaia. They are supposed to be formed in two main sites: a galactic field and star clusters.

Global survey of star clusters in the Milky Way - IV. 63 new open clusters detected by proper motions [PDF]
, 2015 AIMS: In their 1st extension to the Milky Way Star Clusters (MWSC) survey, Schmeja et al. applied photometric filters to the 2MASS to find new cluster candidates that were subsequently confirmed or rejected by the MWSC pipeline.

Blue Straggler Stars in Galactic Open Clusters and the effect of field star contamination [PDF]
, 2008 We investigate the distribution of Blue Straggler stars in the field of three open star clusters. The main purpose is to highlight the crucial role played by general Galactic disk fore-/back-ground field stars, which are often located in the same region ...

NGC 4337: an over-looked old cluster in the inner disc of the Milky Way [PDF]
, 2014 Galactic open clusters do not survive long in the high density regions of the inner Galactic disc. Inside the solar ring only 11 open clusters are known with ages older than one Gyr.

Heterogeneity of the population of open star clusters in the Galaxy [PDF]
, 2012 Based on published data, we have compiled a catalogue of fundamental astrophysical parameters for 593 open clusters of the Galaxy. In particular, the catalogue provides the Galactic orbital elements for 500 clusters, the masses, central concentrations ...

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 Using data from Gaia Data Release 3 and Kepler/K2, we present a catalog of 16 open clusters with ages ranging from 4–4000 Myr that provides detailed information on membership, binary systems, and rotation. We assess the memberships in 5D phase space, and
