Overview

â„šī¸
Roslund 3 is a rich, very dense object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a relatively close distance, below the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age, metallicity, and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.

Note: This object contains blue stragglers according to at least one source.

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

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 1.00 (50th percentile).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 1.00 (50th percentile).

Hu et al. (2021)
Ellipticities (core, all): e_core=0.1422, e_all=0.0997.

This cluster was include in (Dias et al., 2002A&A...389..871D, Cat. B/ocl) however, parameters log(t)=7.643, Av=1.035, [Fe/H]=0.080 were taken from Bossini et al. (2019A&A...623A.108B, Cat. J/A+A/623/A108). Ahumada & Lapasset (2007A&A...463..789A, Cat. J/A+A/463/789) cite stars DR2 1823376864591083904=HD 350990 and HD 350991 as blue stragglers, HD 350990 is a member according to Cantat-Gaudin et al. (2018A&A...618A..93C, Cat. J/A+A18/A93) however is located in the main sequence of the cluster and not in the straggler region, on the other hand, HD 350991 was not observed by Gaia.

Ahumada & Lapasset (2007)
The dereddened colour-magnitude diagram in (1993A&AS...97..755T) was examined. Adopted cluster centre: star 41 in (1993A&AS...97..755T). Stars A=HD 350990 and B=HD 350991 have spectra B6IIIn and are cluster members (1993A&AS...97..755T). The author assigns the unusual positions of these stars in the colour-magnitude diagram to high rotation velocities.
