Scientific paper

A program of photoelectric stellar photometry has been carried out in the field of the Taurus dark clouds with a view to establishing the distance of the clouds and the absorption law in that region of the sky. It is found that the distance of the dark clouds accompanying the Tau T1 and Tau T3 associations is 132 plus or minus 10 pc. Within the absorption region 0-4 m, the Taurus dark clouds are characterized by a nearly normal absorption law (to within 5-10%). In the field of the dark clouds a group of F0-G0 stars close to the main sequence is found whose space density is three to eight times that in the solar neighborhood.
