The Unified Cluster Catalogue: towards a comprehensive and homogeneous database of stellar clusters

G. I. Perren, M. S. Pera, H. D. Navone +1

We introduce the Unified Cluster Catalogue, the largest catalogue of stellar clusters currently listing nearly 14000 objects. In this initial release it exclusively contains Milky…

The multiplicity fraction in 202 open clusters from Gaia

J. Donada, F. Anders, C. Jordi +7

In this study, we estimate the fraction of binaries with high mass ratios for 202 open clusters in the extended solar neighbourhood (closer than 1.5 kpc from the Sun). This is one…

An analysis of the most distant catalogued open clusters -- Re-assessing fundamental parameters with Gaia EDR3 and

G. I. Perren, M. S. Pera, H. D. Navone +1

Several studies have been presented in the last few years applying some kind of automatic processing of data to estimate the fundamental parameters of open clusters. These paramete…

pyUPMASK: an improved unsupervised clustering algorithm

M. S. Pera, G. I. Perren, A. Moitinho +2

Aims. We present pyUPMASK, an unsupervised clustering method for stellar clusters that builds upon the original UPMASK package. Its general approach makes it plausible to be applie…

Embedded clusters: upgrading visual and infrared photometric analysis with Gaia DR2 and ASteCA

E. E. Giorgi, G. R. Solivella, A. Cruzado +3

Embedded clusters are groups of stars which have not dispersed yet the residual of the parental cloud where they were born so getting precise distances and properties of these grou…

Sixteen overlooked open clusters in the fourth Galactic quadrant. A combined analysis of UBVI photometry and Gaia DR2 with ASteCA

G. I. Perren, E. E. Giorgi, A. Moitinho +3

Aims: This paper has two main objectives: (1) To determine the intrinsic properties of 16 faint and mostly unstudied open clusters in the poorly known sector of the Galaxy at 270$^…

The nearby Galaxy structure toward the Vela Gum nebula

E. E. Giorgi, G. R. Solivella, G. I. Perren +1

We report on photometry and spectroscopy for MK classification purposes carried out in the fields of five open clusters projected against the Vela Gum in the Third Galactic…

The edge of the young Galactic disc

Giovanni Carraro, Ruben A. Vazquez, Edgardo Costa +2

In this work we report and discuss the detection of two distant diffuse stellar groups in the third Galactic quadrant. They are composed of young stars, with spectral types ranging…
