Overview

â„šī¸
NGC 3105 is a rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large distance, above the mid-plane, affected by high extinction. It is catalogued as a massive, near-solar metallicity, young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.

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: 0.65 (50th percentile).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.65 (50th percentile).

Hu et al. (2021)
Ellipticities (core, all): e_core=0.1884, e_all=0.0564.

Ahumada & Lapasset (2007)
The dereddened colour-magnitude diagram of suspected members in (1977A&A....59..141F) was examined.
