The globular cluster NGC 6934.
Abstract
New photoelectric and photographic photometry in B and V is presented for the globular cluster NOC 6934. The color-magnitude diagram is determined down to V 18 and is basically similar to that for M3. An evenly populated horizontal branch appears at VHB= 16.82l0.02. The reddening, estimated from the position of the RR Lyrae strip, is EB V= 0.20 + 0.03, giving a distance modulus (m - M)0= 15.6 Brief discussions of the variable stars and of the cluster luminosity function are included.
