Description

My poster is related to observing the new open clusters in Ultraviolet and analyzing their data in photometry.

We observed via the DK1.54 meter telescope in Chile and the CASLEO telescope in Argentina in the Ultraviolet filter because it is the best way of observation for Reddening. Reddening is independent of distance, age, and metallicity.

Our method is Isochrone fitting for our observed open clusters. For Isochrone fitting, we need Reddening.

Our goals are: 1) Are these new open clusters that we observed with DK1.54 and CASLEO telescopes real open clusters or not? 2) Do Reddening for all our observed clusters.

The Gaia Data Release 3 will allow us to precisely study known Galactic open clusters. We collected the available photometric and astrometric data and then observed new open clusters with DK1.54 and CASLEO telescopes photometrically in the Ultraviolet region in a homogeneous way.

With these data, a first homogeneous census of the open clusters in the Milky Way using Ultraviolet photometry can be derived and compared to the literature.
