  Abstract

  uvby-β photoelectric photometry of the open cluster NGC 1342 is presented. From the analysis of photometric data reddening, distance, temperature and gravity are determined for each star, and from the distance and reddening of each, a mean distance modulus and reddening of 8.62±0.22 mag and E(b-y) = 0.297±0.112, respectively, to the cluster is assigned. An age of 4.0×108yr is determined through direct comparison with theoretical models. Five stars were identified in the direction of NGC 1342 as chemically peculiar stars of which four are cluster members.
