Abstract (from CDS):

By relying on recently improved Hipparcos parallaxes for the Hyades, Pleiades and Ursa Major clusters we find that stellar models with updated physical inputs reproduce nicely the location in the colour-magnitude diagram of main-sequence stars of different metallicities. Stars in the helium-burning phase are also discussed, showing that the luminosity of giants in the Hyades, Praesepe and Ursa Major clusters appears to be in reasonable agreement with theoretical predictions. A short discussion concerning the current evolutionary scenarios closes the paper.
