Difference between Open cluster and Open cluster family

Open cluster vs. Open cluster family

An open cluster is a group of up to a few thousand stars that were formed from the same giant molecular cloud and have roughly the same age. In astronomy, an open cluster family is a group of approximately coeval (age range \sim30 Myr) young open star clusters located in a relatively small region of the Galactic disk (radius \sim250 pc).

Similarities between Open cluster and Open cluster family

Open cluster and Open cluster family have 8 things in common (in Unionpedia): Milky Way, Open cluster remnant, Parsec, Perseus (constellation), Star cluster, Star formation, Stellar association, Stellar kinematics.

Milky Way

The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our Solar System.

Open cluster remnant

In astronomy, an open cluster remnant (OCR) is the final stage in the evolution of an open star cluster.

Parsec

The parsec (symbol: pc) is a unit of length used to measure large distances to astronomical objects outside the Solar System.

Star formation

Star formation is the process by which dense regions within molecular clouds in interstellar space, sometimes referred to as "stellar nurseries" or "star-forming regions", collapse and form stars.

Stellar association

A stellar association is a very loose star cluster, looser than both open clusters and globular clusters.

Stellar kinematics

In astronomy, stellar kinematics is the observational study or measurement of the kinematics or motions of stars through space.
