Overview

ℹ️

Teutsch 42 is a poorly populated, loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large^* distance, near the mid-plane, affected by very high extinction. It is catalogued as a very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the mass parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

(*): The parallax distance estimate (~6.44 kpc) differs significantly from the median photometric distance (~3.08 kpc).

Distant Very high extinction Very young

Morales et al. (2013)
Classified as morphological type 'OC1' (totally exposed cluster still physically associated with gas). Morphological flag: exposed cluster, without submm emission.

Mercer et al. (2005)
Association of stars. Detected using no magnitude cut. Detected in 2MASS catalog with our algorithm. Appears in 2MASS images.
