Photoelectric, photographic, and CCD UBV photometry, spectroscopic observations, and star counts are presented for the open cluster Berkeley 58 to examine a possible association with the 4.37d Cepheid CG Cas. The cluster is difficult to…

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…

The latest Gaia Data Release 3 provides an opportunity to expand the census of Galactic open clusters harboring classical Cepheid variables, thereby bolstering the cosmic distance scale. A comprehensive analysis yielded a total of 50…

As part of a wider investigation of evolved massive stars in Galactic open clusters, we have spectroscopically identified three candidate classical Cepheids in the little-studied clusters Berkeley 51, Berkeley 55 and NGC 6603. Using new…

Classical Cepheids in open clusters are key ingredients for stellar population studies and the characterization of variable stars, as they are tracers of young and massive populations and of recent star formation episodes. Cluster Cepheids…

In the Gaia era, the membership analysis and parameter determination of open clusters (OCs) are more accurate. We performed a census of OC's classical Cepheids based on Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) and obtained a sample of 33 OC…

New and existing X-ray, UBVJHKsW(1-4), and spectroscopic observations were analyzed to constrain fundamental parameters for M25, NGC 7790, and dust along their sight-lines. The star clusters are of particular importance given they host the…

We have obtained CCD UBVI_{KC} photometry down to V ~ 21.0 for the open clusters Berkeley 26, Czernik 27, Melotte 72, NGC 2479 and BH 37. The latter has never been studied before. Cluster stellar density profiles were obtained from star…

CCD BVI photometry of the faint open clusters Berkeley~73, Berkeley~75 and Berkeley~25 are presented. The two latter are previously unstudied clusters to our knowledge. While Berkeley~73 is found to be of intermediate-age (about 1.5 Gyr…

Classical Cepheids (CCs) in Galactic open clusters (OCs) provide essential observational constraints for calibrating the period-age relation (PAR) and the period-Wesenheit relation (PWR) of CCs. However, distant and long-period OC Cepheids…

In this paper we revisit the problem of identifying bona fide cluster Cepheids by performing an all-sky search for Cepheids associated with open clusters and making use of state-of-the-art catalogued information for both Cepheids and…

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 consider the possibility of cluster membership for 13 planetary nebulae that are located in close proximity to open clusters lying in their lines of sight. The short lifetimes and low sample size of intermediate-mass planetary nebulae…

Photometric UBVI CCD photometry is presented for NGC 188 and Berkeley 17. Color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) are constructed and reach well past the main-sequence turn-off for both clusters. Cluster ages are determined by means of isochrone…

A study is presented regarding the nature of several variable stars sampled during a campaign of photometric monitoring from the Abbey Ridge Observatory: 3 eclipsing binaries, 2 semiregulars, a luminous Be star, and a star of uncertain…

We investigate two neighboring clusters in the Cygnus complex, Berkeley 86 and Berkeley 87, with a primary emphasis on the evaluation of extinction in the field of view towards and across the clusters. We also analyze their kinematic…

The open cluster Berkeley 90 is the home to one of the most massive binary systems in the Galaxy, LS III +46$^{\circ}$11, formed by two identical, very massive stars (O3.5 If* + O3.5 If*), and a second early-O system (LS III +46$^{\circ}$12…

Classical Cepheids are key probes of both stellar astrophysics and cosmology as standard candles and pulsating variable stars. It is important to understand Cepheids in unprecedented detail in preparation for upcoming GAIA, JWST and…

We present a binary-based reassessment of the age of the intermediate-age open cluster NGC 7789, together with well-constrained stellar parameters for twelve components in six SB2 systems, including two eclipsing binaries. Our analysis…

In this study, the structural and basic astrophysical parameters of the poorly studied open cluster Berkeley 6 are calculated. Analyses of the cluster are carried out using the third photometric, spectroscopic, and astrometric data release…
