- Description:
- We have obtained CCD BVI_KC_ photometry down to V~21.5 for the open cluster Lynga 11 and its surrounding field. This previously unstudied object appears to be rich and highly absorbed. A cluster angular radius of 4.5+/-0.5, equivalent to (3.0+/-0.3)pc, is estimated from star counts in 100-pixel a side boxes distributed throughout the whole observed field. Our analysis suggests that Lynga 11 is moderately young and probably of solar metallicity.

- Description:
- In 2008-2010, we obtained 6095 CCD frames in the BVIc photometric system for 49 classical Cepheids discovered in the ASAS-3 project. The observations were obtained on the 76-cm telescope of the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO, RSA) and the 40-cm telescope of the Cerro Armazones Observatory of the Catholic University of the North (OCA, Chile), with a SBIGCCD ST-10XME camera. We present tabulated observations, light curves, and revised elements for the brightness variations.

- Description:
- We present a new, BVIc photometric survey of the young open cluster IC 4665, which improves on previous studies of this young cluster by incorporating a rigorous standardization procedure, thus providing high-fidelity colors and magnitudes for cluster members. We use this new photometric dataset to reevaluate the properties (age and distance) of IC 4665.

- Description:
- We present new photometric data for 14 galactic open clusters taken by the 65cm telescope at Gunma Astronomical Observatory. They were in the anti-galactic center region selected from the Catalog of Open Cluster Data (Lynga, 1987, See Cat. <J/A+A/438/1163>). We estimated the parameters of the clusters, i.e., age, metallicity, distance, and reddening, by fitting Padova isochrones to the color-magnitude diagram.

- BVIc photometry of Trumpler 20
- Short Name:
- J/MNRAS/391/1482
- Date:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- We show that the open cluster Trumpler 20, contrary to the earlier findings, is actually an old Galactic open cluster. New CCD photometry and high-resolution spectroscopy are used to derive the main parameters of this cluster. At [Fe/H]=-0.11 for a single red giant star, the metallicity is slightly subsolar. The best fit to the colour-magnitude diagrams is achieved using a 1.3-Gyr isochrone with convective overshoot. The cluster appears to have a significant reddening at E(B-V)=0.46 (for B0 spectral type), although for red giants this high reddening yields the colour temperature exceeding the spectroscopic Teff by about 200K. Trumpler 20 is a very rich open cluster, containing at least 700 members brighter than M_V_=+4. It may extend over the field of view available in our study at 20x20arcmin^2^.

- Description:
- We present a BVI photometric and astrometric catalogue of the open cluster NGC 3960, down to limiting magnitude V~22, obtained from observations taken with the Wide Field Imager camera at the MPG/ESO 2.2m Telescope at La Silla. The photometry of all the stars detected in our field of view has been used to estimate a map of the strong differential reddening affecting this area. Our results indicate that, within the region where the cluster dominates, the E(V-I) values range from 0.21 up to 0.78, with E(V-I)=0.36 (E(B-V)=0.29) at the nominal cluster centroid position; color excesses E(V-I) up to 1 mag have been measured in the external regions of the field of view where field stars dominate. The reddening-corrected color-magnitude diagram (CMD) allows us to conclude that the cluster has an age between 0.9 and 1.4Gyr and a distance modulus of (V-M_V)_0=11.35. Based on observations made with the European Southern Observatory telescopes obtained from the the ESO/ST-ECF Science Archive Facility.

- BVI of NGC 5466 red giants and blue stragglers

- Description:
- We present wide-field BVI photometry for about 11500 stars in the low-metallicity cluster NGC 5466. We have detected the red giant branch bump for the first time, although it is at least 0.2mag fainter than expected relative to the turnoff. The number of red giants (relative to main-sequence turnoff stars) is in excellent agreement with stellar models from the Yonsei-Yale and Teramo groups, and slightly high compared to Victoria-Regina models. This adds to evidence that an abnormally large ratio of red giant to main-sequence stars is not correlated with cluster metallicity.

- Description:
- NGC4589, a bright E2 merger-remnant galaxy, hosts the peculiar fast and faint calcium-rich supernova SNIb SN2005cz. The progenitor of Ca-rich SNeIb has been controversial: it could be (1) a young, massive star with 6-12M{sun} in a binary system, or (2) an old, low-mass star in a binary system that was kicked out from the galaxy center. Moreover, previous distance estimates for this galaxy have shown a large spread, ranging from 20 to 60Mpc. Thus, using archival Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys (HST/ACS) F435W, F555W, and F814W images, we search for star clusters in NGC4589 in order to help resolve these issues. We find a small population of young star clusters with 25<V<=27(-7.1<M_V_<-5.1)mag and age <1Gyr in the central region at R<0.5' (<3.8kpc), thus supporting the massive-star progenitor scenario for SN2005cz. In addition to young star clusters, we also find a large population of old globular clusters. In contrast to previous results in the literature, we find that the color distribution of the globular clusters is clearly bimodal. The turnover (Vega) magnitude in the V-band luminosity functions of the blue (metal-poor) globular clusters is determined to be V_0_(max)=24.40{+/-}0.10mag. We derive the total number of globular clusters, N_GC_=640{+/-}50, and the specific frequency, S_N_=1.7{+/-}0.2. Adopting a calibration for the metal-poor globular clusters, M_V_(max) =-7.66{+/-}0.14mag, we derive a distance to this galaxy: (m-M)_0_=32.06{+/-}0.10(ran){+/-}0.15(sys) (d=25.8{+/-}2.2Mpc).
