On the basis of the PPMXL catalogue (Röser, Demleitner & Schilbach, 2010) we searched for white dwarfs that are also member candidates of the Hyades in a region up to 40 pc from the cluster centre. We use the proper motions from PPMXL in the convergent point method to determine probable kinematic members. We cross-match the kinematic candidates with catalogues containing white dwarfs and, finally, check the kinematic with the photometric distances for consistency. We find the 10 classical white dwarfs in the Hyades and determine their individual kinematic distances. Additionally, we identified 17 new probable (former) Hyades white dwarfs, i.e. white dwarfs co-moving with the bulk space motion of the Hyades cluster. At present, none of them can be excluded from membership on the basis of the measured radial velocities. For another 10 objects, the kinematic and the photometric distances are discordant which rates them as probable non-members. Among the probable members, five white dwarfs are in binary systems, three are known, two are new. There is good indication for an empirical magnitude-distance (from centre) relation, such that the dimmer white dwarfs are farther away from the cluster centre than the brighter ones. Our sample is getting incomplete close behind the centre of the cluster. Follow-up observations are encouraged to independently confirm the predicted radial velocities and the distances of the candidates.

Astrometric and photometric initial mass functions from the UKIDSS Galactic Clusters Survey: III Praesepe
在过去的几十年里，疏散星团一直是许多研究的主题。考虑到初始质量函数的普适性仍然是当前研究的主题，这样的研究是至关重要的。Praesepe是一个有趣的疏散星团，可以用来研究恒星和亚恒星的质量函数（MF），考虑到它的中间年龄和附近的距离。在这里，我们提出了一个广泛的领域，近红外研究的Praesepe使用数据发布9（DR 9）的UKIRT红外深空调查（UKIDSS）星系团调查（GCS）的结果。我们获得了集群候选人的Praesepe基于3sigma天体测量和5波段光度选择。我们推导出Praesepe在0.2-0.45Msol质量范围内的二进制频率为25.6+/-3.0%，0.1-0.2Msol为19.6+/-3.0%，0.07-0.1Msol为23.2+/-5.6%。我们还研究了Praesepe的集群候选人的可变性，我们得出结论，七个对象可以是可变的。我们推导了Praesepe在Z-和J-波段的光度函数，并导出了它的MF.我们观察到，我们确定的MF Praesepe不同于以前的研究：虽然以前的MF呈现从0.6到0.1Msol的增加，我们的MF显示出下降。我们在星团的两个不同区域，即1.25度以内和1.25度以外，观察了Praesepe的MF，我们观察到这两个区域的MF都降低到较低的质量。在0.072-0.6Msol的质量范围内，我们将我们的结果与毕宿星、昴宿星和α Per MF进行了比较，…
