    • Strengthening the open cluster distance scale via VVV photometry 

      Majaess, D.; Turner, D.; Moni Bidin, C.; Geisler, D.; Borissova, J.; Minniti, D.; Bonatto, C.; Gieren, W.; Carraro, G.; Kurtev, R.; Mauro, F.; Chené, A.-N.; Forbes, D.; Lucas, P.W.; Dékány, I.; Saito, R.K.; Soto, M. (2012)
      Approximately 14% of known Galactic open clusters possess absolute errors ≤20% as evaluated from n ≥ 3 independent distance estimates, and the statistics for age estimates are markedly worse. That impedes such diverse ...
