Abstract

We performed a photometric study of globular clusters around the isolated elliptical galaxy NGC 821. B, V and R-band photometry come from the Mini-Mosaic imager on the 3.5-m Wisconsin Indiana Yale NOAO (WIYN) telescope. Observations were conducted between November 30 - December 2, 2005. Average seeing conditions were ~0.7".

Two Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide-Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) fields were analysed in the V and I-bands. Objects in this catalogue are the globular cluster candidates according to the selection criteria detailed in the journal article.

Astrometric solution is from USNO-B stars. Note the center of NGC 821 on this system is located at 02:08:21.118 +10:59:42.21. Photometry has been corrected for Galactic extinction and we used a distance modulus of m-M=31.75 in our analysis.
