Overview

â„šī¸
CWNU 1227 is a poorly populated, very loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very close distance, below the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption and age parameters (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

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

Liu et al. (2025)
Classified as primordial binary cluster 72 along with CWNU_410, and of multiple system 25 along with OCSN_76 and CWNU_410.

Palma et al. (2025)
Part of multiple system G125, along with HSC_1719 and HSC_1687.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as moving group. CMD class: 0.99 (50th percentile).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.99 (50th percentile).
