Technology is now allowing for the investigation of star clusters outside of the Milky Way. As attention turns to the extragalactic star clusters, a perception that the system of star clusters in the Milky Way is well understood may grow, resulting in the neglect of these important objects. In this review, the status of our understanding of the Milky Way's open star cluster population will be discussed. Specifically, I will attempt to illustrate not only the important information that can and must be learned from these nearby star clusters, but also the degree to which our understanding of the Galactic open clusters remains incomplete.

Exciting Time

AbstractModelling rich star clusters is at an exciting time, now that detailed star-by-star modelling of all open star clusters has become possible. We should renew attention to the modelling of globular star clusters, to enable us to exploit the flood of excellent observational data now available. At the same time, new ideas in star cluster astrophysics require us to broaden the realism of our modelling in various directions.

AbstractThis paper provides an introduction to IAU Symposium 266 on star clusters as basic building blocks in space and time. We define clusters as bound systems and discriminate them from general stellar clusterings or groups and unbound associations. We give a few examples of young, embedded, compact clusters which may evolve into looser, open clusters after dynamical relaxation due to mass loss and secular relaxation processes. We ask how and where star clusters form (in normal and interacting galaxies) and provide statistics of open clusters in terms of cluster masses and ages in the solar neighborhood (where observational data are most complete). Finally, we list a number of basic questions for current and future star cluster research and discuss the prospects for cluster studies with the next generation infrared and submillimeter telescopes (Herschel; JWST, E–ELT; ALMA, NOEMA).
