Overview

â„šī¸
Mamajek 4 is a rich, very dense object of high 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, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age, metallicity, and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.
Very close Low extinction Near-solar metallicity Intermediate age
