Multicolor CCD photometry of the open cluster IC 361. (2010)

Keywords : stars fundamental parameters - Galaxy: open clusters: individual: IC361

Abstract:CCD photometry in the eight-color Vilnius + I system for 7250 stars down to I=19.6mag has been obtained in the 20'x26' field of the open cluster IC361 in Camelopardalis. The catalog of 1420 stars down to V~18.5mag is presented. It contains the coordinates, V magnitudes, seven color indices, quantitative photometric spectral types, absolute magnitudes and distances. The interstellar extinction is found to be non-uniform across the field, with the values of A_V_ in the range 1.9 to 2.4mag. The distribution of distance moduli of individual stars shows that the cluster is located as far as, or just beyond, the Perseus spiral arm. ...(more)
Abstract: (hide)
CCD observations in seven filters U,P,X,Y,Z,V,S of the Vilnius system plus the filter I of the Cousins system were carried out in December of 1999 with a 2K CCD camera on the 1m telescope of the USNO Flagstaff Station (Arizona), which gives a field of the diameter of 20'. Repeated observations in the Vilnius filters were done with the same telescope and a new 2Kx2K CCD camera in March of 2009. During the latter run we have obtained well-calibrated CCD data only for filters Y, Z, V, S, since observations through the remaining three filters on the succeeding night were curtailed by cirrus clouds. Additional frames in the Vilnius filters U,Y,V were taken for the central part of the field (12'x12') in December of 2008 with a 4K CCD camera on the 1.8m Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope (VATT) on Mt. Graham (Arizona).
