Overview

â„šī¸
NGC 4184 is a moderately populated, very dense object of 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, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is moderately studied in the literature.

Palma et al. (2025)
Classified as optical pair (not dynamically associated) P165, along with UBC_516.

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

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.96 (50th percentile).
