Globular Clusters: Individual: Ngc 5927, Hr Diagram

Scientific paper

We present for the globular cluster NGC 5927 the first multicolor CCD photometry that reaches below the cluster's main sequence turnoff. The turnoff is located approximately at V_TO_=20.1mag, (B-V)_TO_=1.18mag, (V-I)_ TO_=1.30mag. There is a hint of horizontal branch morphology variations with distance from the cluster center. Using the isochrones of VandenBerg & Bell (1985), we derive the cluster age to be about 15Gyr.
