The broad giant branch of Melotte 66.
Abstract
Summary. New photoelectric photometry confirms the apparent width of the giant branch seen on an earlier, photographic colour-magnitude diagram of the very old open cluster Melotte 66. It is shown that this width is unlikely to be caused by differential reddening.
