We describe the use of eclipsing binaries to derive fundamental properties of the binary star components in a cluster. The method requires the use of reliable isochrones and accurate properties of stars that lie along them.

Resumen

Resumen

Describimos el uso de las binarias eclipsantes para derivar propiedades fundamentales de las componentes de las binarias en cúmulos estelares. El método requiere el uso de isocronas confiables y de propiedades exactas de las estrellas situadas en éstas.
