Abstract:
We determined the integrated magnitudes of 3208 star clusters in the
2MASS near-infrared (JHKs) passbands.
Description:
The catalogue presents integrated parameters in near-infrared (JHKs)
passbands for 3208 Galactic star clusters. The integrated magnitudes
are based on the most probable cluster members selected from the
high-precision, homogeneous all-sky catalogue 2MAst that is
constructed on the basis of catalogues PPMXL (Roeser et al., 2010,
Cat. I/317) and 2MASS (Cutri et al., 2003, Cat. II/246). The
integrated magnitudes are computed by adding the individual
luminosities of the most secure cluster members. In order to put the
computed magnitudes into a uniform and unbiased system they were
corrected for the effect of unseen stars in the 2MAst. The clusters in
the catalogue are sorted according to their numbers in the MWSC.
