Proper motion values of the known candidate YSOs associated with BRC 17 (left panel) and the known probable cluster members associated with Collinder 69 (right panel) plotted as a function of their distances obtained from Gaia EDR3. Panels a and c: μ_α vs. d plot of the sources. The candidate YSOs and cluster members lying within a 5 × MAD boundary in the μ_α vs. d plot are plotted using filled blue circles, and the outliers are plotted using open gray circles. The dashed lines indicate the median values of μ_α and d of the candidate YSOs and cluster members. Panels b and d: μ_δ vs. d plot of the sources. The gray shaded ellipses show the 5 × MAD boundary range in distance and proper motions within which the sources are used to estimate a distance. The candidate YSOs and cluster members lying within the 5 × MAD boundary in the μ_δ vs. d plot are plotted using filled blue circles, and the outliers are plotted using open gray circles. The dashed lines indicate the median values of d and μ_δ of the candidate YSOs and cluster members.
