Overview

Ruprecht 119 is a rich, very dense object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate* 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 and mass parameters (see Parameters). It is very well-studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~2.21 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~1.69 kpc).

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

Relatively close Moderate extinction Near-solar metallicity Young

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

💡 Note: The parameters are sometimes transformed from their original values to match the format of the columns shown here, see FAQ. The columns DAv, Bfr, BSS correspond to differential extinction, binary fraction, and blue stragglers, respectively. BSS values can be listed as fractions or integers.
(*): indicates that this parameter is assigned more than one value in the corresponding reference.
