The Way

The way to arrive at (even relative) ages for globular clusters involves the determination of their (relative) distances. We would like to see a theory which would fit the absolute magnitudes of RR Lyrae stars as determined from observations (Sandage effect). We have examined a sample of 17 CM diagrams of galactic globular clusters, 11 of which were observed at ESO and reduced with the program, ROMAFOT and 6 of which were taken from the literature. In Fig. 1 the difference in bolometric magnitude between the turnoff point and the location of the zero-age horizontal branch (ZAHB), δV RRTO (bo1) is plotted versus [Fe/H]. It turns out that δV RRTO ≃ δ RRTO (bo1) + 0.1 = 3.56 ±0.15. We are faced with the problem of determining how the horizontal branch scales with metallicity in order to understand the constant value of 3.56 in this relation.
