Global survey of star clusters in the Milky Way IV. 63 new open clusters detected by proper motions

R. -D. Scholz, N. V. Kharchenko, A. E. Piskunov +2

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 subseque…

Global survey of star clusters in the Milky Way II. The catalogue of basic parameters

N. V. Kharchenko, A. E. Piskunov, E. Schilbach +2

Although they are the main constituents of the Galactic disk population, for half of the open clusters in the Milky Way reported in the literature nothing is known except the raw p…

Global survey of star clusters in the Milky Way I. The pipeline and fundamental parameters in the second quadrant

N. V. Kharchenko, A. E. Piskunov, E. Schilbach +2

Aims: On the basis of the PPMXL star catalogue we performed a survey of star clusters in the second quadrant of the Milky Way. Methods: From the PPMXL catalogue of positions and pr…

PPM-Extended (PPMX) - a catalogue of positions and proper motions

S. Roeser, E. Schilbach, H. Schwan +3

Aims: We build a catalogue PPM-Extended (PPMX) on the ICRS system which is complete down to a well-defined limiting magnitude and contains the best presently available proper motio…

Revisiting the population of Galactic open clusters

A. E. Piskunov, N. V. Kharchenko, S. Röser +2

We present results of a study of the galactic open cluster population based on the all-sky catalogue ASCC-2.5 (I/280A) compiled from Tycho-2, Hipparcos and other catalogues. The sa…

Astrophysical parameters of Galactic open clusters

N. V. Kharchenko, A. E. Piskunov, S. Röser +2

We present a catalogue of astrophysical data of 520 Galactic open clusters. These are the clusters, for which at least three most probable members (18 on average) could be identifi…
