Description:
The table photom.dat contains the first multicolour (UVBRI) CCD
photometry of 4899 stars in a 4'x7' field of the poorly studied
globular cluster M80. The observations were acquired on 1994 June
13-16 using the 2.5m telescope of the Las Campanas Observatory, with a
2x1024x1024 pixel CCD. Two observing 4'x4' fields were observed, the
first one at the cluster center, and the second one centered at
approximately 3' to the East of the cluster center. The limiting
magnitude was deeper in the the second frame by approximately
DV=2.5mag. The exposures were 8 to 500s, with a total of 7 frames in
U, 17 frames in B, 20 frames in V, and 18 frames in I.
