Scientific paper

We present some results of a pilot program to study star clusters with the 2MASS database. While 2MASS cannot resolve the cores or detect much of the main sequence of globular clusters, the homogeneity and large angular coverages make the database suitable to study young star clusters. We show evidence of mass segregation, and how galactic tidal disruption and differential rotation may have played a role in evolution of the spatial structure of many young star clusters.
