Mass of Open Cluster NGC 7789
-
Abstract
Mass of open cluster NGC 7789 in the Galaxy is determined by three methods: the photometric method based on mass-luminosity relations of stars in the cluster Mpho=7712.5M⊙; the dynamical method based on virial theorem Mvir=6996.1M⊙; and the tidal radius method based on the interaction between the cluster and the Galaxy Mtid=5152.5M⊙. The mean mass of this cluster is estimated to be Mc=6620.4±762.5M⊙.
