Overview

â„šī¸
Markarian 50 is a moderately populated, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the mass parameter (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.

Almeida et al. (2025)
Mass determination: intermediate fit. Isochrone match: intermediate fit. Silver sample.
