Overview

ℹ️

Alessi 52 is a sparse, very loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large^* distance, near the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as an old cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature, with no articles listed in the last 8 years.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~7.33 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~3.35 kpc).

Note: This object shares a significant percentage of members with 3 later reported entries. See table with shared members information.

⚠️ Warning: the low UTI value and no obvious signs of duplication (C_dup=1.0) indicate that this is quite probably an asterism, moving group, or artifact, and not a real open cluster.
