Scientific paper

Faint-magnitude VI CCD photometry has been obtained for the clusters Arp-Madore 2, Tombaugh 2 and Saurer 1 with the DuPont 2.5-meter telescope at Las Campanas Observatory. These three clusters are among a handful that have been proposed to be associated with the so-called “Galactic Anticenter Stellar Structure” (GASS). Using the Padova isochrones (Girardi et al. 2000, 2002), we have self-consistently determined the ages, distances and Galactocentric positions of these clusters. In this contribution the newly determined parameters will be discussed, as will the potential association of the clusters with the “GASS”.
