Abstract:
This work involves near infrared photometry of the young cluster NGC 2384. Observations were taken at the Mt Abu Infrared Observatory using the NIC-MOS3 detector in February 2000. The distance to the cluster is obtained as 2187 pc. The HR diagram for this cluster has been extended to MJ 5m and the gaps studied. The age has been determined as 40 Myr. The luminosity function for NGC 2384 is plotted.
