UBVIc photometry of cluster Berkeley 59

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present UBVIc CCD photometry of the young open cluster Be 59 with the aim to study the star formation scenario in the cluster.

Description

The radial extent of the cluster is found to be ~10arcmin (2.9pc). The interstellar extinction in the cluster region varies between E(B-V)=1.4 to 1.8mag.

The ratio of total-to-selective extinction in the cluster region is estimated as 3.7+/-0.3. The distance of the cluster is found to be 1.00+/-0.05kpc. Using near-infrared (NIR) colours and slitless spectroscopy, we have identified young stellar objects (YSOs) in the open cluster Be 59 region.

The Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) and IRAS-HIRES images around the cluster region are also used to study the emission from unidentified infrared bands and to estimate the spatial distribution of optical depth of warm and cold interstellar dust.
