Overview

â„šī¸
OC 0279 is a poorly populated, 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 low-mass, near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

Note: This object shares a large percentage of members with a later reported entry. See table with shared members information.

Liu et al. (2025)
Classified as primordial binary cluster 305 along with NGC_1333, and of multiple system 52 along with HSC_1250 and NGC_1333.

Palma et al. (2025)
Part of multiple system G108, along with NGC_1333 and HSC_1250.
