Abstract

The VISTA variables in the V´ıa L´actea (VVV) maps the inner disk and bulge area of our galaxy, and one of the principal objectives is to search for new star clusters in 5 different infrared bands with the aim of building a statistically significant sample. The new open clusters allows us not only to estimate their distance and age, but also provide important information about formation, evolution and dynamical theories of these systems in the Galactic environment. We present some recent results of photometric and spectroscopic investigations of VVV young cluster CL059, we derived fundamental parameters such as reddening, distance and age by fitting isochrones to the color magnitude diagram. In addition we obtained preliminary proper motions for the cluster stars.
