Abstract:

Astrometry (positions and proper motions) and photographic BVR photometry were determined from a set of 29 photographic plates and CCD data in a region of $2.3^{\circ}\times2.3^{\circ}$ in the area of open clusters NGC 1750 and NGC 1758 in Taurus. The iterative central overlap algorithm was used for the proper motion calculations. Plate-to-plate transformations and astrometric magnitude effects are discussed in detail. CCD data interact with photographic material in three different ways: for the elimination of astrometric magnitude effects, for the photometric standard calibration of photographic plates and for building a CCD pseudo-plate used for astrometric purposes as any other photographic plate. A preliminary analysis of the resulting photometric and astrometric catalogue confirmed the reality of two different clusters in the zone (NGC 1750 and NGC 1758). There were no indications for the existence of NGC 1746.

What is OpenURL?

The OpenURL standard is a protocol for transmission of metadata describing the resource that you wish to access. An OpenURL link contains article metadata and directs it to the OpenURL server of your choice. The OpenURL server can provide access to the resource and also offer complementary services (specific search engine, export of references...). The OpenURL link can be generated by different means.

If your librarian has set up your subscription with an OpenURL resolver, OpenURL links appear automatically on the abstract pages.
You can define your own OpenURL resolver with your EDPS Account. In this case your choice will be given priority over that of your library.
You can use an add-on for your browser (Firefox or I.E.) to display OpenURL links on a page (see http://www.openly.com/openurlref/). You should disable this module if you wish to use the OpenURL server that you or your library have defined.
