Fundamental parameters and time evolution of mass loss are investigated for post-main-sequence stars in the Galactic globular cluster 47 Tucanae (NGC 104). ... We confirm the cluster's distance as d = 4611+213 -200 pc and age as 12 ТБ 1 Gyr. Horizontal branch models appear to confirm that no more red giant branch mass loss occurs in 47 Tuc than in the more metal-poor Я? Centauri, though difficulties arise due to inconsistencies between the models. ...

Finally, the radial velocity is also expressed in the reference frame of the Cosmic Background Radiation. This velocity is noted v3k . It is calculated from the heliocentric velocity v using the total solar motion of 360 km/s towards the direction defined by the B1950 equatorial coordinates B 11.25 H - 5.6 deg (Lubin Villela 1986). v3k = v + 360 cos(theta) Where theta is: cost(theta) = sin(de3k) sin (de1950) + cos (de3k) cos(de1950) cos(al3k - al1950) . ...
