Young star cluster candidates in M31

Applying our identification method to 13 WFPC2 fields, covering an area of 60arcmin^2^, has revealed 79 new candidate young star clusters in these portions of the M31 disk. Most of these clusters are small (<~5pc), young (~10-200Myr) star groups located within large OB associations.

We have estimated the reddening values and the ages of each candidate individually by fitting isochrones to the stellar photometry. We provide a catalog of the candidates including rough approximations of their reddenings and ages. We also look for patterns of cluster formation with galactocentric distance, but our rough estimates are not precise enough to reveal any clear patterns.
