Aims. NGC 1502 is located at the periphery of the Cam OB1 association and probably within the Orion Spur, with published distance estimates varying between 0.7 and 1.5 kpc. We combine new polarimetric observations and existing uvbyβ and UBV photometries to provide new estimates of the cluster’s parameters. Methods. We present new multi-wavelength polarization observations of 22 stars in the direction of the cluster and, using the wavelength of maximum polarization, calculate the total-to-selective extinction ratio for each of these stars. These are combined with homogenized uvbyβ and UBV photometries to obtain the individual stellar distances and study the structure of the field. Results. We found no evidence of significant extinction variation across the cluster and obtained an average color excess E(b − y) = 0.56 ± 0.02 mag, corresponding to E(B − V) = 0.76 mag. Given the uniformity of both pmax and λmax toward the cluster and the distribution of the color excess with distance, it seems likely that the polarization in this region arises from aligned dust grains in the foreground of the cluster, not farther than 500–600 pc. Based on 20 stars located beyond 500 pc within the studied field of view, we obtained an average polarization-based total-to-selective extinction ratio R = 2.83 ± 0.14 yielding visual absorption AV = 2.14 ± 0.16 mag. Using 11 stars with uvbyβ data that represent the main sequence of the cluster, we calculated a photometric distance of 1117−89+96 pc. This estimate is fully supported by the UBV -based analysis and the new individual membership probabilities that we derive. Assuming a solar metallicity yields an age of 5 Myr. Our analysis yields controversial results regarding the membership of the stars associated with the SZ Cam system (HD 25638 and HD 25639) to the cluster.

We have carried out a search for emission line pre-main sequence (PMS) stars in the area of the star-forming young open cluster NGC 1893 by means of slitless spectroscopy. We find 19 emission line stars with spectral types spanning the range from early B-type to G-type. All the PMS stars are confined to two small regions: the outer rim of the molecular cloud associated with the H ii region IC 410 and the vicinity of the bright emission cometary nebulae Sim 129 and Sim 130. The overall spatial distribution of PMS stars strongly suggests, that present day star formation in NGC 1893 is triggered by the O-type stars in the cluster.

AbstractThe preliminary results of the CCD search for variable stars in the very young open cluster NGC 6823 are presented. About ten new variable stars were discovered. The most interesting finding is that of the two pre-main sequence (PMS) δ Scuti-type variables. Because the evolutionary rate of period change is large at the PMS stage, these stars could be used in the future for testing it observationally.

AbstractWe have measured the He I D3 line, λ5876 Å, in 32 F-type young open cluster stars and in 4 field stars. Combining our results with previous observations of D3 we strengthen the following conclusions: (a) Sub-surface convective zones appear, on the main sequence, around F0 (B – V ~ 0.3). (b) The stars between F0 and F5 (0.3 ≲ B – V ≲ 0.42) are chromospherically “active” irrespective of age, which implies a heating mechanism not affected by evolutionary effects. In this range the activity in D3 and X-rays are uncorrelated. (c) For stars later than F5 the correlation among all the activity indices, chromospheric and coronal, shows a common energy source. Convective zones here should be deep enough to generate magnetic fields capable of supplying this energy, and also for braking the rotation.
