Scientific paper

Models of open clusters in a state of equilibrium in the space of the three parameters of the stellar motion and simultaneously far from virial equilibrium are analyzed. A formula for the phase-space stellar number density in such cluster models is derived, as well as formulas for the integrated and differential energy distributions of the phase-space volume occupied by cluster stars per unit stellar mass. These three quantities are computed for several times exceeding the time for violent relaxation of the cluster model. The phase-space density function obtained is used to compute the distribution of the absolute values of stellar velocities for the cluster model considered.
