The Age of the Large Magellanic Cloud Cluster NGC 2031
Abstract
NGC 2031 is a globular cluster in the Large Magellanic Cloud. A color- magnitude diagram is fitted with appropriate isochrones which indicate that the age of the cluster is 140 +/- 20 Myr. The cluster is similar to the well-known young cluster NGC 1866.
