  • Basic Parameters of Open Star Clusters DOLIDZE 14 and NGC 110 in Infrared Bands
    Basic Parameters of Open Star Clusters DOLIDZE 14 and NGC 110 in Infrared bands Gireesh C. Joshia, Y. C. Joshib, S. Joshib, R. K. Tyagic aCenter of Advanced Study, Department of Physics, Kumaun University, Nainital-263002 bAryabhatta Research Institute of Observational Sciences, Nainital, India 263002 cDepartment of Physics, Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna Govt. P.G. College, Khatima-262308, Uttarakhand Abstract The basic physical parameters of a poorly studied open cluster NGC 110 and an unstudied open cluster DOLIDZE 14 are estimated in the present study using the archival PPMXL and WISE catalogues. The radius of both the clusters are estimated by fitting the modified King’s empirical model on their stellar density profiles. The other basic parameters of the clusters such as distance, reddening, and age are obtained by visual fitting of the Marigo’s solar metallicity isochrone on their IR colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs). The mean-proper motion of the clusters are estimated through the individual proper motion of probable members identified through the dynamical and statistical methods. The archival catalogues (JHKW1W2) are constructed for both the clusters by compiling the extracted data from the PPMXL and WISE catalogues. The various colour-excesses, such as E(J −H), E(H −K) and E(W1 − W2), are estimated using the best fit theoretical isochrone on the (J − H) − H,(H − K) − H and (W1 − W2) − H CMDs, respectively. The ratios of various infrared colours of the clusters are obtained through their two-colour diagrams. We also identify the most probable members in these clusters by estimating spatial, kinematic and spatio-kinematic probabilities of arXiv:1505.02822v1 [astro-ph.SR] 11 May 2015 stars within the cluster.

  • Observer Le Ciel En Octobre 2018
    OBSERVER LE CIEL EN OCTOBRE 2018 LE CIEL D'AUTOMNE ET NOTRE AMAS LOCAL En tout début de nuit de ce mois d'octobre, ce sont encore les constellations du ciel d'été qui dominent la voûte céleste : Le Bouvier, avec l'éclatante Arcturus suivi de Hercule sur l'hori- zon ouest, puis au zénith le somptueux triangle d'été marqué par les brillants jalons, d'abord Véga de la constellation de la Lyre au zénith, puis plus au sud est, Deneb du Cygne, puis au sud, Altaïr de l'Aigle. Ce mois d'octobre 2018 est encore marqué par la présence de deux belles planètes de notre sys- tème solaire : tout d'abord Saturne, entre le méridien et l'ho- rizon ouest et enfin, presque au méridien, la star de l'été, Mars, la planète rouge, exceptionnellement brillante, ce qui est du à son exceptionnelle proximité de la Terre en 2018. Précisons cependant que ces deux planètes sont situées assez basses sur l'horizon sud car l'écliptique d'été traverse les constellations les plus australes du zodiaque. Pour admirer ces deux bijoux planétaires, il faut disposer d'une petite lunette astronomique ou mieux encore d'un téles- cope, même de faible puissance, le but étant de disposer d'un instrument offrant des amplifications d'au moins 50 à 80 fois. Avec de tels grossissements, on pourra sans problème aper- cevoir les magnifiques anneaux de Saturne, et si le ciel est clément, pas trop turbulent, et si la tempête de poussière qui a sévi sur l'ensemble de la planète depuis juin dernier s'est to- Lettre d'Information IMCCE – Septembre 2018 talement estompée, on pourra voir la calotte polaire de Mars et quelques éléments de sa surface.

By utilizing color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of the stars observed in the near-infrared (NIR) bands, it is possible to determine the properties of open clusters such as distance, reddening, age and metallicity. Such parameters are necessary for studying clusters and Galactic disk. The Galactic (radial and vertical) abundance gradient also can be studied using OCs (Hou, Prantzos, & Boissier 2000; Chen, Hou, & Wang 2003; Kim & Sung 2003; Tadross 2003; Kim et al.

Tadross National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics, 11421 - Helwan, Cairo, Egypt E-mail: [email protected] (Received November 02, 2010; Revised November 18, 2010; Accepted December 01, 2010) ABSTRACT A sample of 145 JHK{2MASS observations of NGC open star clusters is studied, of which 132 have never been studied before. Twelve are classi¯ed as non-open clusters and 13 are re-estimated self-consistently, after applying the same methods in order to compare and calibrate our reduction procedures. The fundamental and structural parameters of the 120 new open clusters studied here are derived using color-magnitude diagrams of JHK Near-IR photometry with the ¯tting of solar metallicity isochrones. We provide here, for the ¯rst time, a catalog of the main parameters for these 120 open clusters, namely, diameter, distance, reddening and age. Key words : Galaxy: open clusters and associations | individual: NGC | astrometry | Stars | astronomical databases: catalogs 1. INTRODUCTION can be improved. The JHK Near-IR 2MASS catalog has the advantage Systematic studies of open star clusters (OCs) are of being a homogeneous database, enabling us to ob- very important for understanding galactic structure serve young clusters in their dusty environments and and star formation processes, as well as stellar evo- reach their outer regions where low mass stars dom- lution and evolution of the Galactic disk.

    Publications and Products of June/juin 2000 Volume/volume 94 Number/numéro 3 [683] The Royal Astronomical Society of Canada Observer’s Calendar — 2000 This calendar was created by members of the RASC. All photographs were taken by amateur astronomers using ordinary camera lenses and small telescopes and represent a wide spectrum of objects. An informative caption accompanies every photograph. The Journal of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada Le Journal de la Société royale d’astronomie du Canada It is designed with the observer in mind and contains comprehensive astronomical data such as daily Moon rise and set times, significant lunar and planetary conjunctions, eclipses, and meteor showers. The 1998, 1999, and 2000 editions each won the Best Calendar Award from the Ontario Printing and Imaging Association. (designed and produced by Rajiv Gupta) Price: $14.95 (members); $16.95 (non-members) (includes taxes, postage and handling) The Beginner’s Observing Guide This guide is for anyone with little or no experience in observing the night sky. Large, easy to read star maps are provided to acquaint the reader with the constellations and bright stars. Basic information on observing the moon, planets and eclipses through the year 2005 is provided. There is also a special section to help Scouts, Cubs, Guides and Brownies achieve their respective astronomy badges. Written by Leo Enright (160 pages of information in a soft-cover book with otabinding which allows the book to lie flat). Price: $15 (includes taxes, postage and handling) Promotional Items The RASC has many fine promotional items that sport the National Seal.
