V, I photometry of the metal-rich bulge globular cluster Terzan 2.

ORTOLANI S., BICA E. and BARBUY B.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present for the first time optical colour magnitude diagrams of the globular cluster Terzan 2, in the V, I colours. The horizontal branch is red. The red giant branch morphology can be fitted with that of 47 Tuc, but definitely not that of NGC 6553. We derive a reddening of E(B-V)=1.54 and a distance d☉=7.7 kpc if R=3.1, or 5.3kpc if R=3.6. Terzan 2 adds to the list of bulge metal-rich clusters now with reliable parameters.
