dc.descriptionIn this paper I combine the results of a set of population synthesis models with simple Montecarlo simulations of stochastic effects in the number of stars occupying sparsely populated stellar evolutionary phases, to show that the scatter observed in the magnitudes and colors of LMC and NGC 7252 star clusters can be understood in the framework of current stellar evolution theory, without the need to introduce ad-hoc corrections (e.g. artificially increasing the number of AGB stars).
