Spin alignment of stars in old open clusters [PDF]
Stellar clusters form by gravitational collapse of turbulent molecular clouds, with up to several thousand stars per cluster. They are thought to be the birthplace of most stars and therefore play an important role in our understanding of star formation, a fundamental problem in astrophysics.

A Study of Stellar Spins in 15 Open Clusters
We analyze spectroscopic and photometric data to determine the projected inclinations of stars in 11 open clusters, placing constraints on the spin-axis distributions of six clusters.

Global survey of star clusters in the Milky Way - III. 139 new open clusters at high Galactic latitudes [PDF]
Context. An earlier analysis of the Milky Way Star Cluster (MWSC) catalogue revealed an apparent lack of old (t & 1 Gyr) open clusters in the solar neighbourhood (d. 1 kpc). Aims.

Rotational velocities and spectral types have been determined for Be stars in 12 open clusters in both the northern and the southern sky, and color-magnitude or H-R diagrams constructed for each from available photometric data. The location of the Be stars in the color-magnitude diagrams shows again that Be stars may exist in various evolutionary ...

On the disc and halo of the milky way through a study of star clusters [PDF]
The subject is the metallicity and the correlation between the metallicity and spatial distribution of star clusters of the Milky Way. The open star clusters are confirmed as good indicators for the population of the galactic disc, whereas the globular ...

The Occurrence of Peculiar Stars in Open Clusters [PDF]
We have classified on the MK system a total of 455 stars in 12 open clusters and associations. The classification is based on wide (1.2 mm) spectra of two reciprocal dispersions (39, 128 Å mm−1) obtained with the Kitt Peak 2.1 m and 90 cm reflectors, respectively.

UOCS. XIII. Study of the Far-ultraviolet Bright Stars in the Open Cluster NGC 2420 Using AstroSat
We present the study of four far-ultraviolet (FUV) bright stars in the field of the open cluster NGC 2420 using the Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope mounted on AstroSat.

Despite having data for over 10 ^9 stars from Gaia, less than 10 ^4 star clusters and candidates have been discovered. In particular, distant star clusters are rarely identified, due to the challenges posed by heavy extinction and great distance. However,

Cool Carbon Stars in Open Clusters [PDF]
By combining lists of carbon stars with the catalogue of open clusters (Alter et al., 1970), a list of variable carbon stars, being probable members of clusters is given. The number of stars is too small to derive reliable statistics on cluster membership. Too few radial velocities are yet available.

In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.
