This standardized document follows the rules of the Standard Description for Astronomical Catalogues. For those having to work on this catalogue using FORTRAN programs, this ReadMe file can be transformed into a f77-compliant program which reads the files making up this catalogue, in two versions: either a f77 program loading whole files into arrays, or a f77-program reading each data file line by line.

Abstract:
    UBVI CCD photometry has been obtained for the intermediate-age open
    cluster M35 (NGC 2168). From this new photometry we derived the
    cluster parameters (Vo-MV= 9.60±0.10 mag, E(B-V) = 0.255±0.024
    mag), age (logAge=8.3±0.3) and a photometric abundance (Z~0.008,
    i.e. [Fe/H]~-0.3) from comparison with theoretical isochrones of the
    Padova group. A minimum binary frequency (35±5%) was estimated from
    the distribution of distance moduli of unevolved proper motion
    members. Faint photometric members were selected by using differences
    in the reddening effect on colour indices.

Description:
    BVI CCD photometry was performed for the central region of M35 on 1997
    November 23 at Siding Spring Observatory with the 40-inch telescope
    (f/8) and a thinned SITe 2048×2048 CCD (24-mm pixels). The scale was
    0.602 arcsec/pixel, giving 20.5arcmin on a side. Two sets of exposure
    times were used in the observations: long exposures 60s in I, 150s in
    V, 300s in B, 600s in U; short exposures: 5s in I and V, 7s in B and
    15s in U. The seeing was between 1.4 and 2.1arcsec.
