... We address a question if globular clusters (GC) in a protogalaxy could for some time evolve chemically as isolated systems, enriching themselves with heavy elements produced in first supernova events that follow initial star formation. We determine both the critical mass of a protoglobular cluster that is needed to retain the ejecta of the very first supernova, and the critical energy (i.e., number of supernovae) that is needed to expel the residual gas from a cluster of a given mass. ...

... From the uvby photometry and proper motions for about 5500 nearby F stars we have found the following: (i) F stars , taken in narrow ranges of metallicity , show at [fe/H] 0 rather distinct cut-off in their distribution along the Main Sequence (MS) at the blue side, which is suggested to be an indication for the MS turn-off in stellar groups of fixed metallicity ; (ii) the corresponding turn-off age from theoretical isohrones strongly correlates with the ...
