BVRI photometry in NGC 6496

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present high-quality BVRI photometric data in the field of globular cluster NGC6496 obtained with the SOAR Telescope Adaptive Module (SAM).

Description

Our observations were collected as part of the ongoing SAM commissioning. The distance modulus and cluster color excess as found from the red clump are (m-M)_V_=15.71+/-0.02mag and E(V-I)=0.28+/-0.02mag.

An age of 10.5+/-0.5Gyr is determined from the difference in magnitude between the red clump and the subgiant branch. These parameters are in excellent agreement with the values derived from isochrone fitting. From the color-magnitude diagram we find a metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.65dex and hence support a disk classification for NGC 6496.
