Ser. 126 81 1997 1997A&AS..126...81F Clusters, open Photometry, CCD Photometry, VRI open clusters and associations: individual (IC 2602) stars: evolution stars: late-type We present the results of VRI photometry of the young open cluster IC 2602. Two 15x15arcmin^2^ fields were observed in February and May 1991 using the 1-m Swope telescope at Las Campanas. Using theoretical isochrones obtained from D'Antona & Mazzitelli (1994ApJS...90..467D), and allowing for observational and other uncertainties, we identify 78 primary candidate members with 12<V<18.5 from their positions on colour-magnitude diagrams. We compare the cluster field with an offset field of similar galactic latitude and estimate the contamination due to background stars to be large, >=50%, as might be expected given its low galactic latitude. We also compare our photometry with that given for the X-ray detected stars of Randich et al. (1995A&A...300..134R) present complimentary narrow band H{alpha} photometry for a subset of the stars.
