Hst Photometry of the Globular Cluster M4
This paper presents a detailed description of the acquisition and processing of a large body of imaging data for three fields in the globular cluster M4 taken with the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 aboard the Hubble Space Telescope. Analysis with the ALLFRAME package yielded the deepest photometry yet obtained for this cluster. The resulting data-set for 4708 stars (positions and calibrated...
متن کاملPhotometry of the Globular Cluster 47 Tuc
We present BV I photometry for about 16000 stars from a 220 arcmin field centered 8 arcmin east of the center of 47 Tuc. We have identified eight likely blue stragglers located in the outer parts of the cluster. Four of these objects are easy targets for spectroscopic studies with ground-based telescopes. Six candidates for blue horizontal branch stars were identified. However, it is possible t...
متن کاملGlobular Cluster Ages and Strömgren CCD Photometry
Strömgren uvby CCD photometry can be used in a variety of ways to constrain the absolute and relative ages of globular clusters. The reddening corrected v−y, c1 diagram offers the means to derive ages that are completely independent of distance. Very precise differential ages for clusters of the same chemical composition may also be determined from such 2–color plots, or from measurements of th...
متن کاملPhotometry of Variable Stars in the Globular Cluster NGC 6397
Time series BV I photometry is presented for 16 short-period variables located in the central region of the globular cluster NGC 6397. The sample includes 9 newly detected variables. The light curve of cataclysmic variable CV6 shows variability with a period of 0.2356 days. We confirm an earlier reported period of 0.472 days for cataclysmic variable CV1. Phased light curves of both CVs exhibit ...
متن کاملCCD photometry of the globular cluster M 92
We present wide field CCD photometry of a galactic globular cluster M92 obtained in the V and I bands with the CFH12K mosaic CCD at the Canada-FranceHawaii Telescope. A well-defined color-magnitude diagram is derived down to 5 magnitudes fainter than the cluster main sequence turn-off. After removing the background contribution, we obtain luminosity and mass functions, surface density profiles,...
