J/A+A/442/917 BVI photometry in Berkeley 73, 75 and 25 (Carraro+, 2005) ================================================================================ A photometric study of the old open clusters Berkeley 73, Berkeley 75 and Berkeley 25. Carraro G., Geisler D., Moitinho A., Baume G., Vazquez R. =2005A&A...442..917C (SIMBAD/NED BibCode) ================================================================================ ADC_Keywords: Clusters, open ; Photometry, UBVRI ; Photometry, CCD Keywords: open clusters and associations: individual: Berkeley 73, Berkeley 75, Berkeley 25 - open clusters and associations: general - Hertzprung-Russell (HR) and C-M diagrams Abstract: CCD BVI photometry of the faint open clusters Berkeley 73, Berkeley 75 and Berkeley 25 are presented. The two latter are previously unstudied clusters to our knowledge. While Berkeley 73 is found to be of intermediate-age (about 1.5Gyr old), Berkeley 75 and Berkeley 25 are old clusters, with ages greater than 3.0Gyr. We provide also estimates of the clusters size. All these clusters lie far away from the Galactic Center, at R_GC_>=16kpc, and quite high on the Galactic plane, at |Z_{sun}_|>=1.5kpc. They are therefore important targets to probe the properties of the structure of the Galaxy in this direction, where the Canis Major over-density has been discovered to be located. Description: CCD BVI observations were carried out with the CCD camera on the 1.0m telescope at Cerro Tololo Interamerican era Observatory (CTIO, Chile), on the nights of December 13 and 15, 2004. With a pixel size of 0.469" and a CCD size of 512x512 pixels, this samples a 4.1'x4.1' field on the sky.
