TitleThe color-magnitude diagram of the metal-poor southern globular cluster NGC 4372

AbstractA photometric UBV study to V=17.2 of the globular cluster NGC 4372 has revealed: (1) a color-magnitude diagram characteristic of very metal-poor clusters; (2) a large and variable absorption in front of the cluster; and (3) a distance modulus of 13.65 +/- 0.20. Attention is drawn to a relatively well populated group of stars lying above the horizontal branch in the color-magnitude diagram.
