Scaling relations that link asteroseismic quantities to global stellar properties are important for gaining understanding of the intricate physics that underpins stellar pulsation. The common notion that all stars in an open cluster have…

Open clusters are fundamental laboratories for investigating stellar and Galactic evolution, and serve as important benchmarks for asteroseismic analyses. Using a boutique method to analyze TESS photometry, we study red giants in two old…

We propose to observe with Kepler an age sequence of nearby uncrowded open clusters. The current Kepler field contains very few (only 4) somewhat distant and/or old clusters. Nearby open clusters are already well characterized from ground-…

Following deep astrometric and photometric study of the cluster NGC2682 (M67), we are able to accurately determine its fundamental parameters. Being an old and rich cluster, M67 is a relevant object for the analysis of the Galactic disk…

The BVRcIc CCD photometry in the fields of six open clusters toward the Perseus spiral arm is presented. These data along with JHKs magnitudes taken from 2MASS catalog, have been used to determine cluster's ages, distances and color…

We report the discovery of four new open clusters (named as QC 1, QC 2, QC3 and QC 4) in the direction of Cygnus Cloud and select their members based on five astrometric parameters (l, b, \varpi, \mu^*_{\alpha}, \mu_{\delta}) of Gaia DR2.…

We derive fundamental parameters for the old, rich open cluster NGC 1245 using BVI photometry from the MDM 1.3m and 2.4m telescopes. Based on detailed isochrone fitting, we find NGC 1245 has a slightly sub-solar metallicity, [Fe/H]=-0.05 +-…

Classical Cepheids in open clusters play an important role in benchmarking stellar evolution models, anchoring the cosmic distance scale, and invariably securing the Hubble constant. NGC 6649, NGC 6664 and Berkeley 55 are three pertinent…
