Overview

â„šī¸
UBC 438 is a moderately populated, very loose object of high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, near the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster (see Parameters). It is rarely studied in the literature.

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

Almeida et al. (2025)
Mass determination: invalid due to poor quality CMD. Isochrone match: worst fit.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
