Broadband UBVR cIc photometry of horizontal-branch and metal-poor candidates from the HK and Hamburg/ESO surveys. I.

Key Points

• Broadband photometry shows key characteristics of horizontal-branch and metal-poor candidates.
• This analysis includes candidates from both the HK and Hamburg/ESO surveys, providing a comprehensive dataset.
• The findings reveal the diversity among selected candidates through a detailed photometric assessment.
• Further exploration of these candidates may enhance our understanding of stellar evolution processes.
