Description:
We present UBVRI CCD imaging photometry down to approximately V=19mag
in the area of the very young open cluster Tr 14. Our results confirm
the existence of an anomalous extinction law in the area if it is
interpreted in terms of the UBVRI photometry. According to our
analysis the cluster distance is d=3100 (V0-MV=12.50mag) and its
age is 1.5±.5x106y. We want to draw the attention on stars which,
from the observed magnitude-spread at constant color, could be stars
in an early stage of evolution. In that case, the observed spread
leads to assume that the process of star formation in Tr 14 is
continuous whereas, from pre-main sequence evolutionary tracks, a
duration of about 5x106y is deduced for it. The computation of the
cluster initial mass function reveals a flat slop e even though it
still compares to a Salpeter law. At the same time, we found a spatial
variation of the cluster IMF, which could be explained by mass
segregation in the star formation process. The cluster youth and its
compact appearance seem to confirm that it is far from virial
equilibrium. The observed tot al cluster mass is around 2000M☉
and its core contains about 40% of the total.
