Stromgren uvby CCD photometry can be used in a variety of ways to constrain the absolute and relative ages of globular clusters. The reddening corrected (v-y, c1) diagram offers the means to derive ages that are completely independent of…

The \textit{absolute age} of a simple stellar population is of fundamental interest for a wide range of applications but is difficult to measure in practice, as it requires an understanding of the uncertainties in a variety of stellar…

Ages have been derived for 55 globular clusters (GCs) from overlays of isochrones onto the turnoff photometry, assuming distances based on fits of zero-age horizontal branch (ZAHB) models to the lower bound of the observed distributions of…

We present a new method to compute stellar ages in Globular Clusters (GC) that is ten times more precise than the traditional isochrone fitting procedure. The method relies on accurate stellar evolutionary tracks and on photometry for GCs…

We have applied a new method to analyze the horizontal branch (HB) morphology in relation to the distribution of stars near the red giant branch (RGB) tip for the globular clusters M22, M5, M68, M107, M72, M92, M3 and 47 Tuc. This new…

Globular clusters (GCs) provide statistically significant coeval populations of stars spanning various evolutionary stages, allowing robust constraints on stellar evolution model parameters and ages. We analyze eight old Milky Way GCs with…

We performed the photometric analysis of M2 and M92 globular clusters in g and r bands of SLOAN photometric system. We transformed these g and r bands into BV bands of Johnson-Cousins photometric system and built the color magnitude diagram…

We present new BVI ground-based photometry and VI space-based photometry for the globular cluster M92 (NGC 6341) and examine luminosity functions in B, V, and I containing over 50,000 stars ranging from the tip of the red giant branch to…

We present new BVI photometry for the halo globular cluster M5, and examine the B- and I-band luminosity functions (LFs), based on over 20,000 stars. We do not see evidence in the LF of a ``subgiant excess'' or of a discrepancy in the…

An extensive grid of metal-rich isochrones utilizing the latest available input physics has been calculated for comparison with the old, metal-rich open cluster NGC 6791. The isochrones have been simultaneously fit to BV and VI color…

We present our analysis of Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 observations in F555W (broadband V) and F450W (broadband B) of the globular cluster Hodge 11 in the Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy. The resulting V vs. (B-V)…

We present distance modulus and reddening determinations for 72 Galactic globular clusters from the homogeneous photometric database of Piotto et al. (2002), calibrated to the HST flight F439W and F555W bands. The distances have been…

We use the Stetson, HST, and Gaia DR3 data sets for 22 Galactic globular clusters to select their members and fit their CMDs with isochrones from DSED and BaSTI for $[\alpha/$Fe$]=+0.4$ and an adopted helium mass fraction $Y$. As a result,…

We have used the CFHT REDEYE infrared camera to obtain deep J and K' images of four fields in the globular cluster M13. The composite K, J-K color-magnitude diagram (CMD) extends from the upper red giant branch (RGB) to 2 magnitudes below…

We present accurate relative ages for a sample of 55 Galactic globular clusters. The ages have been obtained by measuring the difference between the horizontal branch and the turnoff in two, internally photometrically homogeneous databases.…

We present a statistical approach for determining the age of Globular Clusters (GCs) that allows estimating the age derived from CMDs more accurately than the conventional methods of the isochrone fitting. We measure how closely a set of…

We investigated the absolute age of the Galactic globular cluster M71 (NGC 6838) by using optical ground-based images (u',g',r',i',z') collected with the MegaCam camera at the Canada-France-Hawaii-Telescope (CFHT). We performed a robust…

We present deep CCD photometry of the globular cluster M13 (NGC 6205) in the Stromgren uvby-Beta system, and determine a foreground reddening of E(b-y)= 0.015mag. From a fit to the main-sequence of metal-poor subdwarfs with Hipparcos…

The age of three of the oldest clusters -- M15, M68, M92 -- has been redetermined. We use the latest EOS and opacity data available for calculating both isochrones and zero age horizontal branches and employ the brightness difference…

The large majority of extragalactic star cluster studies done to date have essentially used two or three-passband aperture photometry, combined with theoretical stellar population synthesis models, to obtain age estimates. The accuracy to…
