Overview
OC 0401 is a poorly populated, very loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close distance, below the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the absorption and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.
Note: This object shares a significant percentage of members with at least one entry reported in the same catalogue. See table with shared members information.
