Study of possible regularities of the metallic distribution of open cluster stars according to the LAMOST catalog

Abstract

In this study were discussed the LAMOST catalog opportunities in the statistical studies of the spectra of stars in open star clusters (OSC). We considered the Pleiades and Praesepe clusters. We examined the absolute stellar magnitude — metallicity relationships for the members of these clusters. Contrary to expectations, a noticeable dependence of the metallicity on the absolute magnitude of the stars in the main sequences of the studied clusters was found, which may be associated with systematic errors in measuring the metallicities for visually faint stars.
