Notes. Nstars: total number of candidate RGB stars selected for the analysis of color spread. “Shift” is the differential shift in  that is found to maximize . NUV − blue and NUV−red are the number of stars having and , respectively.  and are defined in the text. Clusters are listed in order of increasing .
