Mass Determinations of Star Clusters

Mass determinations are difficult to obtain and still frequently characterised by deceptively large uncertainties. We review below the various mass estimators used for star clusters of all ages and luminosities. We highlight a few recent results related to (i) very massive old star clusters, (ii) the differences and similarities between star clusters and cores of dwarf elliptical galaxies, and ...

Mass Segregation in Star Clusters

Star clusters – open and globulars – experience dynamical evolution on time scales shorter than their age. Consequently, open and globular clusters provide us with unique dynamical laboratories for learning about two-body relaxation, mass segregation from equipartition of energy, and core collapse. We review briefly, in the framework of star clusters, some elements related to the theoretical ex...

Mass functions and photometric binaries in nine open clusters

Using homogeneous CCD photometric data from the 105-cm Kiso Schmidt telescope covering a 50 × 50 field, we study the mass functions (MFs) of nine open clusters. The ages and Galactocentric distances of the target clusters vary from 16 2000 Myr and 9-10.8 kpc, respectively. The values of MF slopes vary from -1.1 to -2.1. The classical value derived by Salpeter (1955) for the slope of the IMF is ...

The Star Formation Histories of Galaxies in Distant Clusters

We present a detailed analysis of the spectroscopic catalog of galaxies in 10 distant clusters from Dressler et al. (1999, D99). We investigate the nature of the different spectral classes defined by D99 including star forming, post–starburst and passive galaxy populations, and reproduce their basic properties using our spectral synthesis model. We attempt to identify the evolutionary pathways ...

Age Determinations of the Open Star Clusters

We based on 2MASS J and Ks photometry for the open star clusters King 14 and NGC 146, and using color magnitude diagrams with isochrones fit we have found an age of log(age) = 7.8 (63 8 Myr) for King 14 and log(age) = 7.5 (32 8 Myr) for NGC 146. Our age determination is bigger than given in Lynga [5] ( log(age) = 7.2 for King 14 and log(age) = 7.1 for NGC 146 ) and less than Dias [6] ( log(ag...
