Overview

â„šī¸
UPK 599 is a rich, very loose object of very high C3 quality. Its parallax locates it at a close distance, above the mid-plane, affected by low extinction. It is catalogued as a near-solar metallicity, very young cluster, but with a large variance across recent sources for the age and metallicity parameters (see Parameters). It is poorly studied in the literature.

Yan et al. (2026)
Number of WDs: expected from single-star evolution N=0, with probability of formation through binary evolution >=0.5 N=1.

Palma et al. (2025)
Classified as genetic pair P245, along with Theia_6680.

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: 0.95 (50th percentile).

Hunt & Reffert (2023)
Classified as open cluster. CMD class: 0.95 (50th percentile).
