Photometry: Ccd, Clusters: Globular

Scientific paper

A new CCD photometry of the halo cluster Palomar 13 is used to construct a color-magnitude diagram in the Thuan-Gunn and the B, V photometric systems. The color-magnitude diagram of the cluster shows as already noted by Ortolani et al. (1985AJ.....90..473O) an extremely poor red horizontal branch and a very sparsely populated giant branch. Seven BSS candidates are identified in the field of Palomar 13. The age of the cluster determined by fitting with the isochrones of Proffitt & Vanden Berg (1991ApJS...77..473P) and Bergbusch & Vanden Berg (1992ApJS...81..163B) and by a differential comparison of the color-magnitude diagram with that of Pal 5 is 12+/-2Gyr.
