Open Clusters: Individual: Ngc 2477, Stars: Luminosity Function, Mass Function

Scientific paper

Trough photometric methods we have constructed the luminosity function for the southern open cluster NGC 2477 down to M_v_=~12. We present R-I color-magnitude diagrams and near-infrared color-color diagrams, which allow us to separate statistically the cluster stars from the field ones, numerous because of the galactic latitude of the cluster. Our luminosity function (LF) reproduces some features obtained by other authors, namely, a dip at M_v_=~7, and a probable maximum at M_v_=~12. The method developed to separate cluster stars from field stars could be of interest to other astronomical problems.
