Near-Infrared Photometry of Metal Rich Globular Cluster M71

We have carried out JK near-infrared photometry for the central region of the metal rich globular cluster M71, whose(K, J - K) color-magnitude diagram is presented here. Using two independent methods we derive the distance modulus to M71, 12.89 and 12.86 +/- 0.12 respectively. The former is derived...
