Note:

1. [Fe/H] is in the Carretta & Gratton (1997, A&AS, 121, 95) scale.

2. For all the clusters marked with (*) the metallicity estimates ([Fe/H] and [M/H]) have been derived by using
the empirical method of Ferraro, Valenti & Origlia (2006, ApJ, 649, 243; see also IR relations)

3. The Bolometric magnitudes of the RGB Bump and Tip have been derived by using the bolometric corrections for Population II giants computed

by Montegriffo et al (1998,MNRAS,297,872), and by adopting the reddening and distance values listed in Table 1 and the extinction coefficients

of Savage & Mathis (1979, ARA&A,17,73)
