Scientific paper

We have investigated how integrated photometric properties of Magellanic Clouds star clusters compare with current theoretical stellar population models. Especially, we examine their near-infrared photometry and contrast them with several theoretical models in the literature. We find that there are significant differences among models. These angularities are traced back to the stellar evolution uncertainties at high masses where convective core overshooting prevails and thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branches are important.
Support for this work was provided by the NSF through grant AST-0307487, the New Standard Stellar Population Models (NSSPM) project.
