MWSC-e14a ("MWSC extension 2014a") is a catalogue of
139 new open clusters at high Galactic latitudes
(\|b\|>20 deg) including lists of candidate members. It extends the
Kharchenko et al. 'Catalog of Milky Way Star Clusters'.
The target list was compiled as density enhancements found in the 2MASS
point source catalogue. For confirmed clusters we determined a homogeneous
set of astrophysical parameters such as membership, angular radii of the
main morphological parts, proper motion, distance, reddening, age, and
tidal parameters.
