Fundamental astrophysical parameters such as color excesses, photometric metallicities, ages, and isochrone distances were based on UBV-data analyses, whereas membership probability calculations, structural and astrophysical parameters, as well as the kinematic analyses were based on Gaia DR3-data. We identified 74 and 596 stars as the most probable cluster members with membership probabilities over 50% for Rup-1 and Rup-171, respectively. The color excesses E(B-V) were obtained as 0.166 +/- 0.022 and 0.301 +/- 0.027 mag for Rup-1 and Rup-171, respectively. Photometric metallicity analyses were performed by considering F-G type main-sequence member stars and found to be [Fe/H]=-0.09 +/- 0.16 and [Fe/H]=-0.20 +/- 0.20 dex for Rup-1 and Rup-171, respectively. Ages and distances were based on both UBV and Gaia-data analyses; according to isochrone-fitting these values were estimated to be t=580 +/- 60 Myr, d=1469 +/- 57 pc for Rup-1 and t=2700 +/- 200 Myr, d=1509 +/- 69 pc for Rup-171. The present-day mass function slope of Rup-1 was estimated as 1.26 +/- 0.32 and Rup-171 as 1.53 +/- 1.49. Galactic orbit integration analyses showed that both of the clusters might be formed outside the solar circle.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessgalaxy: diskgalaxy: open clusters and associations: individual: Ruprecht 1 and Ruprecht 171stars: Hertzsprung-Russell and color-magnitude diagramsArticle345810.1002/asna.20240054N/AWOS:0013285135000012-s2.0-85205576152Q3
