Hertzsprung-Russell (Hr) Diagram, Open Clusters And Associations: Individual: Bochum 2

Scientific paper

UBV(RI)_C-Hα CCD photometry and GRISM spectroscopy are presented for Bochum 2, a distant cluster in the galactic anticentre direction. The cluster is young, with late O-type members still on the main sequence. No red giant/supergiant is associated with the cluster. 28 possible cluster members are identified. The distance and mean reddening are ~6 kpc and E(B-V)=0.80, respectively. The reddening law for Bochum 2 matches the standard one. The upper main sequence of the cluster is well defined over a range >=6.5 mag, with some spread due to differential reddening. No strong emission line or Wolf-Rayet star has been detected. There is no bright HII region associated with the cluster.
