The "COClA", a catalogue of open cluster ages. Experiences in data handling, and presentation of the catalogue.
Abstract
The COClA is a compilation of published age and turn-off mass determinations of galactic open clusters. Besides the age values, however, it contains also information and references on all the assumptions and quantities on which the respective age determination is based. The present version of the catalogue contains 1260 entries referring to 250 galactic clusters. A special chapter of the catalogue gives a short description (in tabular form) of the most widely used age calibration curves.
