Washington photometry of 26 moderately young small angular size clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud

Abstract

Aims. With the aim of enlarging the number of studied LMC clusters in the age ange 8.0 <∼ log(t) <∼ 9.0, we focus here on a sample of mostly unstudied cluster candidates. Methods. We present for the first time CCD Washington CT1T2 photometry of stars in the field of 26 LMC clusters. Results. The studied clusters turned out to be small angular size objects with ages within the age range 8.0 <∼ log(t) <∼ 9.0, which are projected or immersed in dense star fields.
