Notes. The age and observable stellar densities for a selection of YMCs found both inside and outside the Milky Way, as listed in Portegies Zwart et al. (2010). Only clusters from Portegies Zwart et al. (2010) with a defined core radius, rc, are shown. The densities were calculated to include only stars blefter than Ks = 28m because fainter stars will not be detectable by MICADO. The table lists the parameters for the clusters shown in Fig. 5.
