We present extensive UBVR photometry of the Galactic globular cluster (GGC) NGC6712 obtained with the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) which reach down to two magnitudes below the main sequence turn-off and allows us for the first time to…

We present a comprehensive photometric study of the old open cluster, NGC 6819 using 1x1 degree field VI MOSAIC CCD imaging taken with the WIYN 0.9m telescope. The resultant color-magnitude diagram (CMD) shows a well developed main sequence…

We present analysis of deep CCD photometry for the very rich, old open star cluster NGC 6819. These CFH12K data results represent the first of nineteen open star clusters which were imaged as a part of the CFHT Open Star Cluster Survey. We…

We investigate the old star clusters in the sample of cluster candidates from Froebrich, Scholz & Raftery 2007 -- the FSR list. Based on photometry from the 2-Micron All Sky Survey we generated decontaminated colour-magnitude and…

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…

We present integrated photometry and color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) for 24 star clusters in M33, of which 12 were previously uncataloged. These results are based on Advanced Camera for Surveys observations from the Hubble Space Telescope…
