Radial abundance gradients of 18 elements in Galactic open clusters from infrared MWM spectra A detailed analysis of 655 giants in 133 clusters

Open clusters are powerful tools for studying the Milky Way.

Open clusters are powerful tools for studying the Milky Way. While large spectroscopic surveys now provide spectra for many cluster members, automated pipelines and heterogeneous membership selections can introduce systematics and inflate apparent cluster scatter. Therefore, a…
