- Description:
- We present the first colour-magnitude relation (CMR) of early-type galaxies in the central region of the Antlia cluster, obtained from CCD wide-field photometry in the Washington photometric system. Integrated (C-T1) colours, T1 magnitudes, and effective radii have been measured for 93 galaxies (i.e. the largest galaxies sample in the Washington system till now) from the FS90 Antlia Group catalogue. Membership of 37 objects can be confirmed through new radial velocities and data collected from the literature.

- Description:
- As part of an ongoing project to investigate the cluster formation and chemical evolution history in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), we have used the CTIO 0.9m telescope to obtain CCD imaging in the Washington system of NGC 2161, SL 874, and KMHK 1719 - three unstudied star clusters located in the outer region of the LMC. We measured T1 magnitudes and C-T1 colors for a total of 9611 stars distributed throughout cluster areas of 13.6x13.6arcmin^2^. Cluster radii were estimated from star counts distributed throughout the entire observed fields. Careful attention was paid to setting apart the cluster and field star distributions so that statistically cleaned color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) were obtained. Based on the best fits of isochrones computed by the Padova group to the (T1, C-T1) CMDs, the {delta}T1 index, and the standard giant branch procedure, ages and metallicities were derived for the three clusters.

- Title:
- CT1 photometry of 10 SMC clusters
- Short Name:

- CDS
- Description:
- Colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) are presented for the first time for 10 star clusters projected on to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The photometry was carried out in the Washington system C and T1 filters allowing the determination of ages by means of the magnitude difference between the red giant clump and the main-sequence turnoff (MSTO), and metallicities from the red giant branch (RGB) locus.

- CT1 photometry of 3 SMC old clusters
- Short Name:

- Description:
- We present the results on the age and metallicity estimates of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) clusters L 110, L 112 and L 113 obtained from CCD Washington CT_1_ photometry. We confirm L 113 as a relatively old and metal-poor cluster, and report for the first time that L 110 and 112 are also relatively old clusters (t~6.5Gyr) . Their derived ages and metallicities reinforce previous suggestions that the farther a cluster is from the centre of the galaxy, the older and more metal-poor it is, with some dispersion. In addition, the bursting star formation model still appears to be the most probable paradigm to describe the SMC's star formation history. We call attention to a second possible burst at ~6-7Gyr, besides the known burst at ~3Gyr.

- Description:
- Colour-magnitude diagrams in the Washington system are presented for the first time for five star clusters projected on to the outer region of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The clusters are found to have ages in the range 0.1-1.0Gyr, as derived from the fit of isochrones with Z=0.004. This sample increases substantially the number of young clusters in the outer SMC - particularly in the south-east quadrant - with well-derived parameters. We combine our results with those for other clusters in the literature to derive as large and homogeneous a data base as possible (totalling 49 clusters) in order to study global effects.

- Description:
- We present CCD photometry in the Washington system C and T1 passbands down to T1~22 in the fields of L35, L45, L49, L50, L62, L63 and L85, seven poorly studied star clusters in the inner region of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). We measured T1 magnitudes and C-T1 colours for a total of 114826 stars distributed throughout cluster areas of 13.7x13.7arcmin^2^ each. Cluster radii were estimated from star counts distributed throughout the entire observed fields.

- Description:
- We present CCD photometry in the Washington system C, T1 and T2 passbands down to T1~23 in the fields of L3, L28, HW 66, L100, HW 79, IC 1708, L106, L108, L109, NGC 643, L112, HW 84, HW 85 and HW 86, 14 Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) clusters, most of them poorly studied objects. We measured T1 magnitudes and C-T1 and T1-T2 colours for a total of 213 516 stars spread throughout cluster areas of 14.7x14.7arcmin^2^ each. We carried out an in-depth analysis of the field star contamination of the colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) and statistically cleaned the cluster CMDs.

- Description:
- With the aim of enlarging the number of studied LMC clusters in the age range 8.0~<log(t)~<9.0, we focus here on a sample of mostly unstudied cluster candidates. We present, for the first time, CCD Washington CT1T2 photometry of stars in the field of 26 LMC clusters. The studied clusters turned out to be small angular size objects with ages within the age range 8.0~<log(t)~< 9.0, which are projected or immersed in dense star fields.

- Description:
- We present Washington photometry of the giant branches of the relatively metal-rich globular cluster NGC 6388 and compare it with 47 Tuc. By examining the spatial distribution of stellar colors across the red giant branch and using spectroscopic data on several bright giants, we found that NGC 6388's center is affected by differential reddening of at least {DELTA}E(B-V)~0.1. Most of the width of the red giant branch is caused by that differential reddening. The southeastern outer regions of the cluster seem to be less affected by variable dust extinction, and we find that NGC 6388 is slightly more metal-rich than 47 Tuc, with a distinct asymptotic giant branch. We have put an upper limit on possible variations in [Fe/H] for NGC 6388, finding that it must be less than ~0.2dex. It is unlikely that such a small range in metallicity could be responsible for the blue horizontal branch and blue tail stars in a cluster with a metallicity similar to the more massive 47 Tuc, which only exhibits a red horizontal branch.
