(1984) published a BV color-magnitude diagram that indicates this object is a globular cluster with a prominent red horizontal branch. A VI color-magnitude diagram by Dotter et al. (2008) confirms this. Thus it is a "second parameter" cluster" in the sense that it has a red HB compared with inner halo clusters with the same metallicity, [Fe/H] = -1.70. The metallicity was derived by Suntzeff et al. (1985) based on the calcium H and K line strengths of two giants. =================================================== References Aaronson, M., Schommer, R. A., Olszewski, E.
