Blue straggler stars in old open clusters exhibit a Kraft break in rotation, with rapid rotators above the break and slow rotators below, indicating their envelopes behave like those of single stars.

Empirical isochrones in photometric diagrams enable identification of unresolved binaries in eight nearby open clusters, yielding binary fractions of 0.16-0.44 and mass ratio modes around 0.4-0.8.
A new catalogue of 56 OB associations within 1 kpc is produced from Gaia data using HDBSCAN, with most showing expansion and connections to local galactic features.
Blue straggler stars in old open clusters predominantly appear near the terminal-age main sequence because mass transfer from asymptotic giant branch donors enriches their cores with helium.
NGC 6791 has an age of 8.46 ± 0.66 Gyr, [Fe/H] = +0.280 ± 0.079, and other parameters that favor an inner-Galaxy origin followed by outward migration.
Wolf-Rayet star clusters show a marginal spatial correlation with unidentified GeV gamma-ray sources, with 11 new cluster associations and 4 isolated WR stars identified as potential emitters from wind termination shocks.
Chemical tagging with seven elements recovers 63 kinematically rejected stars in 22 open clusters, 35% of which lie outside Jacobi radii as extra-tidal debris.
