Overview
HSC 1968 is a sparse, very loose object of low C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It was recently reported in the literature.
â ī¸ Warning: This is likely a duplicate object, which shares a large percentage of members with at least one previously reported entry. See table with shared members information.
