Scientific paper

Published data on the integrated absolute magnitudes M(V) of clusters within 400 pc of the sun are used to determine the luminosity function for the open clusters with M(V) between -9.0 and -2.0. The results are presented in tables and graphs and analyzed. A factor-of-ten increase in the luminosity function as M(V) increased from -7.5 to -2.5 is observed, and the local surface density of clusters with M(V) less than or equal to -2.0 is estimated as 30/sq kpc.
