Stellar contents and star formation in the young cluster Stock 18

Pandey, J. C.; Sagar, Ram; Bhatt, Himali

We have carried out deep (V ∼ 21 mag) UBVRI photometric study of the star cluster Stock 18. These along with archival Infrared data have been used to derive the basic cluster parameters and also to study the star formation processes in and around the cluster region. The distance to the cluster is derived as 2.8 ± 0.2 kpc while its age is estimated…
