The apparent overdensity of open clusters in the Canis Major overdensity
The exciting debate on the existence and nature of the relatively recent discovery of the so-called Canis Major (CMa) overdensity is re-examined here based on the positions, reddenings, ages and metallicities of Galactic open clusters (OCs). The data used to carry out the current study were taken fr...
