Overview

â„šī¸
Theia 101 is a sparse, very loose object of low 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, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It was recently reported in the literature.

âš ī¸ Warning: the low UTI value and no obvious signs of duplication (Cdup=1.0) indicate that this is quite probably an asterism, moving group, or artifact, and not a real open cluster.

Liu et al. (2025)
Classified as tidal capture (resonant trapping binary) 316 along with OCSN_28, and of multiple system 78 along with OCSN_28 and OCSN_27.

Palma et al. (2025)
Part of multiple system G239, along with Theia_248, OCSN_28 and OCSN_27.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as a moving group.
