In this work, using Gaia EDR3 data, we study the binary fraction in the complete sample of star clusters within 1 kpc of the Sun and study its evolution in time in relation to their galacto-centric distance, size (core and limiting radii), location in the galaxy (l,b) and mass-functions. Our sample of 201 clusters is used to makle important conclusions about the life, dissolution and star clusters and the binary fraction in clusters as well as in field stars. |
