We present a BV I optical photometric study of the old open cluster Ruprecht 6 using the data obtained with the SMARTS 1.0 m telescope at the CTIO, Chile. Its color-magnitude diagrams show the clear existence of the main-sequence stars, whose turn-off point is located around $V{\approx}18.45mag$ and $B-V{\approx}0.85mag$. Three red clump (RC) stars are identified at V = 16.00 mag, I = 14.41 mag and B - V = 1.35 mag. From the mean $K_s-band$ magnitude of RC stars ($K_s=12.39{\pm}0.21mag$) in Ruprecht 6 from 2MASS photometry and the known absolute magnitudes of the RC stars ($M_{K_S}=-1.595{\pm}0.025mag$), we obtain the distance modulus to Ruprecht 6 of $(m-M)_0=13.84{\pm}0.21mag$ ($d=5.86{\pm}0.60kpc$). From the ($J-K_s$) and (B - V ) colors of the RC stars, comparison of the (B - V ) and (V - I) colors of the bright stars in Ruprecht 6 with those of the intrinsic colors of dwarf and giant stars, and the PARSEC isochrone fittings, we derive the reddening values of E(B - V ) = 0.42 mag and E(V - I) = 0.60 mag. Using the PARSEC isochrone fittings onto the color-magnitude diagrams, we estimate the age and metallicity to be: $log(t)=9.50{\pm}0.10(t=3.16{\pm}0.82Gyr)$ and $[Fe/H]=-0.42{\pm}0.04dex$. We present the Galactocentric radial metallicity gradient analysis for old (age > 1 Gyr) open clusters of the Dias et al. catalog, which likely follow a single relation of $[Fe/H]=(-0.034{\pm}0.007)R_{GC}+(0.190{\pm}0.080)$ (rms = 0.201) for the whole radial range or a dual relation of $[Fe/H]=(-0.077{\pm}0.017)R_{GC}+(0.609{\pm}0.161)$ (rms = 0.152) and constant ([Fe/H] ~ -0.3 dex) value, inside and outside of RGC ~ 12 kpc, respectively. The metallicity and Galactocentric radius ($13.28{\pm}0.54kpc$) of Ruprecht 6 obtained in this study seem to be consistent with both of the relations.

/CCDRED package applying standard procedures – that is, the overscan correction, bias correction, and the twilight sky flattening have been made. Since interference patterns are seen in the I-band images, we made an I-band supersky image using all the I-band images obtained on the same night and performed a second flattening. In addition, because of the large format of the detector and the slow speed of the shutter, the shutter shading correction is applied.

Observations have been done using the Small and Moderate Aperture Research Telescope System (SMARTS) 1.0 m telescope and Y4KCam CCD at the Cerro-Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO, Chile) on 2010 December 13 (UT). The Y4KCam CCD, made at the Ohio State University, is composed of 4104 × 4104 pixels (each 15 µm, ∼ 0.

이론/모형
Photometry was performed using the DAOPHOT II/ALLSTAR stand-alone package after separating the CCD quadrants to treat them as four separate CCD chips (Stetson 1990). This is because each chip has a different gain and readout noise.

Among the 81 objects in Figure 10 (b), there are 18 objects for which N ≥ 10 stars are used to determine the metallicity, 40 objects for which 1 ≤ N ≤ 9 stars are used, and no information is given for the other 23 objects. Investigating the sources of the metallicity estimates again is beyond the scope of this paper, but a compilation and classification of these estimates using the criteria of the methods to find abundances and number of stars used will be a good approach to obtain a more reliable Galactocentric radial metallicity distribution of the OCs in the Milky Way.
