We present a new independent determination for the age of one of the oldest open clusters, NGC 188: $6.41 \pm 0.33$ Gyr. We utilize a novel approach where we jointly fit the radial velocities (RVs) and spectral energy distributions (SED) of…
In this paper we apply a Bayesian technique to determine the best fit of stellar evolution models to find the main sequence turn off age and other cluster parameters of four intermediate-age open clusters: NGC 2360, NGC 2477, NGC 2660, and…
We present new isochrone fits to colour-magnitude diagrams of the Galactic globular cluster NGC\,6205 (M13). We utilise 34 photometric bands from the ultraviolet to mid-infrared by use of data from the {\it HST}, {\it Gaia} DR2, SDSS,…
In the last decades we witnessed an increase in studies of open clusters of the Galaxy, especially because of the good determination for a wide range of values of parameters such as age, distance, reddening, and proper motion. The reliable…
In this study, we investigate the fundamental astrophysical parameters of the old open cluster NGC 188 through two complementary methods: isochron-fitting and spectral energy distribution (SED) analysis. Using photometric, astrometric, and…
We present combined optical/near-IR photometry (BVIK) for six open clusters - M35, M37, NGC 1817, NGC 2477, NGC 2420, and M67. The open clusters span an age range from 150 Myr to 4 Gyr and have metal abundances from [Fe/H] = -0.3 to +0.09…

Star clusters are good tracers for formation and evolution of galaxies. We compared different fitting methods by using spectra (or by combining photometry) to determine the physical parameters. We choose a sample of 17 star clusters in M33,…
We continue our series of papers describing the results of a photometric survey of open star clusters, primarily in the southern hemisphere, taken in the u'g'r'i'z' filter system. The entire observed sample covered more than 100 clusters,…
