Abstract

Four binary objects and one triplet have been revealed in the young stellar cluster located in the vicinity of IRAS 05137+3919 source on a distance 4.4 kpc with the use of statistic analysis. They are including the pair of AeBe stars. The percentage of the multiple systems in the cluster is mf = 5 and cp = 10.The mass of the multiple systems' components are located in the range from 1 to 8 Msol and log P (rotation period in years) - from 4.4 to 4.7. The median value of the mass ratio of the components is q = 0.86. The percentage of the multiple systems and their parameters in this cluster is resembling with the data obtained in the other star forming regions (ONC, Perseus, U Sco A), in which the value of mf and cp parameters are comparable with the results obtained for field's stellar population.
