Interstellar Extinction in the Dark Cloud Khavtassi 217 IN Cassiopeia The Vilnius photometric system has been applied for the investigation ofinterstellar extinction in the area of dark cloud Khavtassi 217 inCassiopeia. On the ground of photoelectric photometry of 152 stars,their photometric spectral types, absolute magnitudes, color excesses,interstellar extinctions and distances were determined. The area isdivided into two regions with different extinction versus distance run.Distances of the dark clouds are determined.
