Scientific paper

Spectrophotometric observations of the complete sample of twenty four blue stragglers (BSs) in the old galactic open cluster M67 (NGC2682) have been collected, using the Guillermo Haro Observatory in Cananea, Mexico. All the calibrated spectra were re-calibrated by the Beijing Arizona Taipei Connecticut (BATC) photometric system which includes fluxes in 11 photometric bands covering ~3600 10000 Å. The goal of the current work is to provide observational constraints on spectral properties of BSs by determining the effective temperature (Teff) and surface gravity (log g). The overall results, obtained by applying the flux fitting method, indicate that Teff and surface gravities of BSs in M67 are fully compatible with those expected for main sequence stars.
