Abstract

84 PMS stellar objects are identified in a cluster located in the vicinity of IRAS 05137+3919 using the UKIDSS data base and Spitzer telescope (IRAC) images. The age of the cluster is 1.5-2.0 million years. Young stars are distributed nonuniformly in the cluster and form two subgroups. One is localized around the YSO CPM, which is a binary star, and the second contains a substantial number of objects with early spectral classes surrounded by gas-dust nebulae. The K luminosity functions of the PMS stars indicate that the cluster is at a distance of ~4.5 kpc. One of the components of CPM 15 appears to have Sp B3-B5 and is an Ae/Be Herbig star.
