Abstract:
We present deep CCD photometry in the VI passbands using the WIYN 3.5m
telescope of a field located approximately 20 southeast of the center
of M33; this field includes the region studied by Mould & Kristian in
1986ApJ...305..591M 1986ApJ...305..591M. The color-magnitude diagram (CMD) extends to I∼25
and shows a prominent red giant branch (RGB), along with significant
numbers of asymptotic giant branch and young main-sequence stars.
Description:
Our data were obtained with the WIYN 3.5m telescope at Kitt Peak
National Observatory on the night of 1999 March 10 UT.
The night of 1999 March 10 UT was not perfectly photometric, so in
order to photometrically calibrate the data we obtained a set of
Landolt standards and short exposures of the same M33 fields on 2002
February 11 UT. These calibration data were taken with the WIYN 0.9m
telescope on Kitt Peak using the same S2KB CCD imager mounted at the
Cassegrain focus.
