Overview
ASCC 108 is a rich, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, above the mid-plane. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.

💡 Note: The parameters are sometimes
transformed from their original values to match the format of the
columns shown here, see FAQ.
The columns DAv, Bfr, BSS correspond to differential
extinction, binary fraction, and blue stragglers, respectively.
BSS values can be listed as fractions or integers.
(*): indicates that this parameter is
assigned more than one value in the corresponding reference.
