Scientific paper

We present a detailed study on performances of the Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBF) technique as a population tracer, by testing SBF predictions on resolved simple stellar systems. We compare the potentiality of the SBF method against classical tools, as integrated magnitudes and color-magnitude diagrams, typically used for unresolved and resolved stellar populations, respectively. We connect the latter diagnostic instruments to SBF, identifying the limits and the power of the SBF method.
