Quantifying the scale of star formation across the Perseus spiral arm using young clusters around Cas OB5
Context. Cas OB5 is an OB association located at a distance of 2.5–3 kpc that intercepts the Perseus spiral arm. It carries a moderate amount of reddening (A V ~ 2–3 mag) and contains several well-known open clusters within its boundaries, such as King 12, NGC 7788, and NGC 7790. The availability of modern clustering algorithms, together with Gaia
