Overview
ℹī¸
ESO 368 14 is a moderately populated, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, below the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the distance, age, metallicity, and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.

Note: This object shares a very small percentage of members with a later reported entry. See table with shared members information.

Liu et al. (2025)
Classified as tidal capture (resonant trapping binary) 260 along with Haffner_15.

Palma et al. (2025)
Part of multiple system G73, along with HSC_1999 and Haffner_15.

Almeida et al. (2025)
Mass determination: invalid due to poor quality CMD. Isochrone match: worst fit.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.95 (50th percentile).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.95 (50th percentile).

Hu et al. (2021)
Ellipticities (core, all): e_core=0.0954, e_all=0.0245.
