Abstract
The central region of M33 is studied with aim new massive cluster candidates to be distinguished. This region has not been included in details in previous searches. From a collection of photographic plates, obtained under excellent seeing conditions at the Bulgarian National Observatory, using morphologic and photometric criteria, we have selected 26 new star cluster candidates, both young clusters and old globulars. Their coordinates and photographic UBV magnitudes are presented.
