Moving Star Clusters in the Solar Neighborhood

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

Two cluster analysis algorithms - the principal stars method and the hierarchical clustering method - are used to identify moving star clusters in a sample of 1947 single and multiple stars in the nearby solar neighborhood with known space velocities from the Gliese and Jahreiss (Cat. <V/70>) catalog.

Description

Five rich moving clusters containing from 35 to 40 stars with velocities differing by not more than 6 km/s from the centroid value have been reliably identified.

In addition, seven poor clusters have been identified with less confidence. Rich moving clusters include about 10% of all stars with known space velocities.
