Deep Stellar Photometry of IC 10
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
Results of VRI photometry are presented, based on 1-m, 6-m and HST telescope frames taken in different parts of IC 10. From comparison of the location in CM diagrams of branches of blue supergiants it was found that E(B - V) = 0.98. The distance modulus estimation from TRGB is (m - M)I = 23.8 ± 0.1. The ages of brightest stars of the east star complex are derived from comparison with theoretical isochrones. It is possible that IC 10 is a galaxy with an extended red giant disk.
