Young Star Clusters in the Milky Way Halo with DR3

The existence of young embedded clusters at large distances from the Galactic plane is important since it provides an insight into the physical conditions and processes in the halo well as how the halo contributes in a galaxy. We study a sample of 9 such clusters reported in literature using Gaia DR3. We find that some of these clusters most likely exist, while some are not confirmed. We also use ASteca to estimate their parameters. The implications and the physical processes possible to explain their existence are also discussed.
