NGC 2506 is a rich, intermediate-age (2.0 Gyr), metal-poor ([Fe/H] $\sim$ -0.2) open cluster. This work presents the results of 12,157 spectroscopic radial-velocity measurements of 2,442 stars in the NGC 2506 field over 41 years, made as…
We present the first detailed analysis of the detached eclipsing binary V15 in the super-metal rich open cluster NGC 6253. We obtain the following absolute parameters: M_p=1.303+-0.006 Msun, R_p=1.71+-0.03 Rsun, L_p=2.98+-0.10 Lsun for the…

We present orbits for 24 binaries in the field of open cluster NGC 2516 (~150 Myr) and 13 binaries in the field of open cluster NGC 2422 (~130 Myr) using results from a multi-year radial velocity survey of the cluster cores. Six of these…
We determine ages of 71 old Open Clusters by a two-step method: we use main-squence fitting to 10 selected clusters, in order to obtain their distances, and derive their ages from comparison with our own isochrones used before for Globular…
We report on $BVI$ CCD photometry of a field centered on the region of the intermediate-age open cluster NGC 2112 down to V=21. Due to the smaller field coverage, we are able to limit the effect of field star contamination which hampered in…
The ages of pulsating stars in clusters can be determined by isochrone fitting and it can be further improved by asteroseismic modelling. We analyse the intermediate-age open cluster NGC2477, known to suffer from differential extinction, to…
