Abstract Type : Poster Abstract Category : Stars,ISM and the Galaxy Abstract : Open clusters provide information about current star formation processes and play an important role in studying the theories of stellar and galactic evolution. The open cluster consists of two main regions i.e., the core and the corona regions and they have important bearing on studies related with star formation and Galactic evolution as the higher mass stars tends to move towards core region with time due to dynamical evolution. The core of the clusters generally contains relatively bright and massive stars, whereas the corona contain large number of faint and low mass stars. Here, we are presenting our initial results related to the optical photometric study of open cluster NGC 6910 based on the deep and wide field mosaiced images taken from 1.0m Sampurnand telescope of ARIES, India. |
