Notes. The columns contain: the label of the system to be analysed; the reference age of the system; the estimated age with its 1σ error; the relative bias in the estimated age; the estimated overshooting parameter β with its 1σ error; the estimated initial helium abundance with its 1σ error; the two error components of σ and σg for the age; the two error components of σ and σg for the overshooting (see Sect. 3.2). The reference values of overshooting parameter and initial helium abundance are β = 0.16 and Y = 0.275.
