Abstract

Observations have been obtained on the four-color and Hβ system of 16 stars in the field of NGC 7790. These represent virtually all of the stars which are in the B-star region of the cluster color-magnitude diagram. I discuss the membership of these stars and find three which are possibly field stars. The remaining stars indicate a true distance modulus of 11.98 ± 0.13 for the cluster and a color excess of E(b – y) = 0.403.
