Abstract:
We present UBVRI CCD photometry for previously unstudied open clusters
(Be 64 and Be 69). Photometry has also been carried out for nearby
fields to correct f or the effects of field stars contamination. From
the colour-colour diagram the reddening for Be 64 and Be 69 is
estimated to be ∼1.05mag and ∼0.65mag respectively. In case of Be 69
the comparison of observational colour-magnitude diagram
(CMD) with the standard isochrones of VandenBerg
(19855ApJS...58..711V) indicates an apparent discrepancy between the
shape of the turnoff and isochrones. The morphological features of the
CMDs of Be 69 are better understood in terms of convective
overshooting. The comparison of CMDs of both the clusters with the
convective overshoot models (Bertelli et al. 1994A&AS..106..275B 1994A&AS..106..275B)
produces a good fit for a metallicity Z=0.008 and age
=0.8-1.0Gyr. An apparent distance modulus (m-M)=16.2 and 14.3 has been
estimated for Be 64 and Be 69, respectively, which corresponds to a
distance of 3880±480pc and 2860±310pc, respectively.
