The Stellar Content and the Star Formation History of the Local Group Dwarf Galaxy LGS 3.
The star formation history (SFH) and the properties of the dwarf galaxy LGS 3 are analyzed using color-magnitude (CM) diagrams plotted from VRI photometry of 736 stars. The distance to the galaxy is estimated through the position of the tip or the red giant branch. Two acceptable results have been obtained: 0.77+/- 0.07 Mpc and 0.96+/- 0.07 Mpc
