TL;DR: In this paper, a survey using the newly commissioned X-shooter spectrograph to target candidate relatively metal-rich damped Lyα absorbers (DLAs) was conducted, where the strongest rest-frame optical lines (O II, O III, Hβ and Hα) fall in the nearinfrared atmospheric transmission bands.

Mass function and dynamical study of the open clusters Berkeley 24 and Czernik 27 using ground based imaging and Gaia astrometry
D. Bisht,D. Bisht,R. K. S. Yadav,Shashikiran Ganesh,Alok Durgapal,Geeta Rangwal,Johan P. U. Fynbo +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a photometric study of the open clusters Berkeley 24 (Be 24) and Czernik 27 (Cz 27) is presented, where the radii of the two clusters are determined as 2\farcm7 and 2\ farcm3 for Be 24 and cz 27, respectively.
