Near-Infrared Photometry, Metallicity, Globular Cluster, Ngc 6712

Scientific paper

With a large format near-infrared camera at the 2.2-m telescope on Mauna Kea Observatory, we performed JK near-infrared observations for the metal rich globular cluster NGC 6712. This cluster lies near the galatic plane and therefore suffers heavy reddening. We present the near-infrared color-magnitude diagram and also derive the metallicity ([Fe/H] ~ -0.96 +/- 0.27) as well as its distance modulus ((m-M) ~ 13.42 +/- 0.12).
