UBVI photometry in Berkeley 31

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

CCD photometry on the Johnson UBV and on the Kron-Cousins VI systems are presented for 732 stars in and near Be 31, an open cluster located towards the galactic anticenter.

Description

The resultant color-magnitude diagrams indicate that the cluster is an old object. From the color-color diagram, the reddening and metallicity parameters are determined to be E(B-V) = 0.13 mag and [Fe/H] = -0.4.

By comparing the cluster C-M diagrams with the VandenBerg isochrones, and by assuming a normal reddening law, a distance of 5.2 +/- 0.5 kpc and an age of 8 Gyr are derived.
