Topic: IC 2602


  
  Abstract of ESO Scientific Preprint No 1211   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
G and early-K IC 2602 stars are, on average, somewhat more Li-rich than their counterparts in the two slightly older clusters.
Finally, the latest-type IC 2602 stars are heavily Li depleted, with their Li content being as low as the lowest measured among the Pleiades.
As in the Pleiades and Alpha Per, a star-to-star scatter in lithium is observed among 30 Myr old late-K/early-K dwarfs in IC 2602, indicating that this spread develops in the pre--main sequence phases.

 Canberra Astronomical Society - Southern Cross - April 2000
The large open cluster IC 2602 (RA 10h 43m, Dec -64 24'), for example, centred on the star Theta Carinae, is too big for the telescope and needs the wider field of view that binoculars provide.
IC 2714 (11h 18m, -62 42') is located less than a degree to the north.
IC 2501 (9h 39m, -60 05'), a stellar planetary nebula, needed the OIII filter to identify it by blocking out the nearby stars.

 The Evolution of Rotation and Activity in Young Open Clusters: The Zero--Age Main Sequence   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
With cluster ages of 30-50 Myr, IC 2391 and IC 2602 are ideal laboratories in which to observe conditions at the ZAMS since the solar-type stars in these clusters have not been on the main sequence long enough to undergo significant magnetic braking.
Among the IC 2391 and IC 2602 K dwarfs, we observe a factor of $\sim$10 spread in the distribution of rotation periods.
When compared to data from clusters like the Pleiades and the Hyades, we find there are stars in IC 2391 and IC 2602 with rotation rates and activity levels similar to those observed in the older clusters.

 IC 2602   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Open Cluster IC 2602 (= Lacaille II.9 = Melotte 102 = Collinder 229), in Carina
The splendid open cluster IC 2602 was discovered by Abbe Lacaille on March 3, 1752 from South Africa, and cataloged as Lacaille II.9.
The distance of IC 2602 has been slightly adjusted from the data of the Hipparcos satellite; according to these data, the cluster is at 479 light years (the older value had been 489 light years).

We studied the fields of nine nearby open star clusters based on the Tycho-2 catalogue.
The clusters are: Blanco 1, Stock 2, the alpha Per cluster, the Pleiades, NGC 2451, IC 2391, Praesepe, IC 2602, and NGC 7092.
We determined membership probabilities for the stars in the cluster fields from the stellar proper motions and used the Tycho-2 photometry to compute the initial mass function (IMF) of the clusters from the main sequence turn-off point down to approx.

The mean distances of all these clusters have been determined from Hipparcos intermediate data of member stars, taking into account the correlations between the abscissae of stars within a few degrees of the sky (such as in clusters) due to the operation mode of the satellite.
The Pleiades, and probably IC 2391 and IC 2602, define a sequence about 0.5 mag fainter that the previous one (Mermilliod et al.

We construct X-ray luminosity distribution functions for objects in different color ranges and we compare them with those for the Pleiades.
F, G, and early--K type candidates in IC 2602 appear to be more X-ray luminous than in the Pleiades, while no significant difference is seen among late--K and M dwarfs.

Easily seen from dark skies and outlying suburbs well away from the hub of the inner city, a treasure trove of celestial “jewels” awaits the anticipating eye.
Here we can explore the playground of the “rich and famous”; dazzling open clusters such as IC 2602, the “Southern Pleiades” and the glorious NGC 3532.
Nearby lies the expansive eta Carinae nebula, seeded with the light of many clusters and laced with dark lanes of dust.

It is recorded in the IC as "planetary, stellar, 10.5 mag." The nebula measures 6 arcseconds across and Vorontsov-Velyaminov describes it as stellar.
Hartung writes: "This is a good example of a 'stellar' planetary nebula, only to be distinguished from the starry field by the single prism image, though with care a minute bluish disk can be made out.
Nice contrast with IC 2714, which lies to the north in the same low-power field.
