Description
We have carried out near-IR/optical observations to examine star formation toward a bright-rimmed cometary globule (BRC37) facing the exciting star(s) of an HII region (IC1396) containing an IRAS source, which is considered to be an intermediate-mass protostar. With slitless spectroscopy we detected ten H{alpha} emission stars around the globule, six of which are near the tip of the globule and are aligned along the direction to the exciting stars.
