Abstract
We obtained the luminosity function from the Main-Sequence turnoff region to the subgiants for M15 (V=17.0–19.6), using plates taken by the Kitt Peak 4 m reflector. The measured region isr=2′.5–8′.0 zone. We extrapolated the star counts to the cluster center and to the tidal limit, using King's (1966) photometry, Kinget al.'s (1968) counts, Peterson and King's (1975) result, and Simoda and Iben's (1970) theoretical results.
