Scientific paper

We present bulk 3D dynamics for 10+ northern hemisphere open clusters. Utilizing WIYN/Hydra multi-fiber spectroscopic observations and Tycho and/or UCAC-3 proper motions, we determine cluster membership and bulk velocities. Cluster velocities are used to derive cluster orbits with comparison to previous studies.
