ASTROPHYSICAL STUDIES OF 9 UNSTUDIED OPEN STAR CLUSTERS USING GAIA DR3

Abstract

Using the Gaia DR3 data sets, this work gives an analysis of nine open clusters: Dolidze 25, Kronberger 13, Kronberger 18, Majaess 99, NGC 7795, Ruprecht 139, Teutsch 55, S1, and FSR 0596, which are close to the Galactic plane of the Milky Way. The number of probable cluster members is found to be 81, 77, 120, 155, 108, 110, 160, and 116 respectively. Radii are determined as 5.40, 5.25, 4.80, 4.20, 4.28, 3.70, 4.30, 4.30, and 3.53 arcmin, respectively. With solar metallicity isochrones log ages of 7.70, 9.00, 8.35, 7.50, 9.00, 8.00, 7.50, 8.50, and 9.5 yr are determined for these clusters. The best fitting of the isochrone produced distances of 2.6, 1.27, 1.16, 1.16, 3.10, 1.64, 2.50, 2.44, and 0.98 kpc that are similar to the distances calculated from inverting median parallaxes. The mass function slopes are in agreement with the Salpeter value. The results of the total masses are found to be 116.07, 79.33, 141.24, 147.34, 145.76, 491.01, 155, 212.46, and 82.79 M☉.
