RED GIANT BRANCH OF THE METAL POOR GLOBULAR CLUSTERS: II. BUMP, TIP, AND DISTANCE OF NGC 1904

From the BV images of the metal-poor globular cluster NGC 1904 obtained with the 2K CCD camera equipped on the BOAO 1.8m telescope, we construct (B - V, V) color-magnitude diagram of the cluster. The apparent V magnitudes of the RGB bump and tip have been measured from the luminosity function of the...
