Open Clusters: X-Ray Sources, Open Clusters: Membership
Scientific paper
The authors discuss about the identification of candidate members of young open clusters by means of ROSAT observations. Specifically, the results for the IC 2602 and α Persei clusters are presented. In the first case, 86 X-ray sources were detected not associated with previously known cluster members: photometry and spectroscopy have confirmed membership for most of them. In the second case, a PSPC raster scan survey in the α Persei region yielded 84 sources which could not be identified with known optical counterparts. CCD photometry indicated that half of them have colors/magnitudes consistent with membership.
