Distribution of distance moduli. Because of the effect of evolution, only photometric member stars between V = 11–17 mag were used. The Gaussian fit was made for the lower eight magnitude bins and is marked by the thick solid line. The shaded distributions represent the DM distribution of X‐ray emission stars. The adopted distance modulus, the equal mass binary limit and the size of a standard deviation are marked in the figure.
