Abstract

We investigate the old star clusters in the sample of cluster candidates from the Froebrich, Scholz & Raftery (FSR, 2007, Cat. J/MNRAS/374/399) list. Based on photometry from the Two-Micron All-Sky Survey, we generated decontaminated colour-magnitude and colour-colour diagrams to select a sample of 269 old stellar clusters. This sample contains 63 known globular clusters, 174 known open clusters and 32 so far unclassified objects. Isochrone fitting has been used to homogeneously calculate the age, distance and reddening to all clusters.
