Overview

â„šī¸
RSG8 is a rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a very close distance, near the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, young cluster (see Parameters). It is well-studied in the literature.

Note: This is a unique object, which shares a very small percentage of members with at least one previously reported entry. See table with shared members information.

Palma et al. (2025)
Classified as tidal capture (resonant trapping pair) P59, along with HSC_899.

Piecka & Paunzen (2021)
Belongs to cluster aggregate 'Agg53' along with RSG 7.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

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