Overview

â„šī¸
UBC 618 is a poorly populated, very loose object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a large distance, below 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: intermediate fit.

Cavallo et al. (2024)
Gold sample.

Hunt & Reffert (2024)
Classified as open cluster. CMD classes: 1.00 (50th percentile), true positive (human-assigned).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD classes: 1.00 (50th percentile), true positive (human-assigned).
