This project can be done at two levels: Using TopCat & Using Python. We have had sessions on all these topics so please view the videos on https://www.youtube.com/c/shristiastronomy
Aims
to identify cluster members using gaia data DR2 EDR3
Find the average parallax, pmra, pmdec.
How do we find velocities?
plot color-magnitude diagrams for clusters
find the distance, age, extinction to a cluster using isochrones
list of open clusters:
NGC 1960, NGC 1893, NGC 581 (M 103), IC 1805, NGC 6231, NGC 6823, NGC 3293, NGC 6913(M 29), NGC 2264, NGC 2244
