Overview

â„šī¸
UBC 52 is a poorly populated, very loose object of intermediate C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a moderate distance, above the mid-plane, affected by moderate extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, intermediate-age cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the metallicity parameter (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

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

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.98 (50th percentile).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.98 (50th percentile).

Hu et al. (2021)
Ellipticities (core, all): e_core=0.548, e_all=0.3231.
