Abstract

CCD photometry in B and V, taken with the RCA camera at the CTIO 4-meter telescope, is reported for 8800 stars in the field of 47 Tuc (= NGC 104 = C0021-723). Our data, reduced through the DAOPHOT code, comprise results from two long-exposure frame pairs in which the photometry extends from the cluster turnoff down to V~24, and two other short-exposure fields nearer to the cluster center which precisely define the giant and horizontal branches. Color-magnitude diagrams are presented, statistically corrected for background contamination from the Small Magellanic Cloud halo, and a composite CMD and luminosity function are constructed for the entire cluster, covering an 11-magnitude range in luminosity.
