The luminosity distribution of globular clusters in dwarf galaxies.

VAN DEN BERGH S.

Abstract (from CDS):

The majority of the globular clusters associated with the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy are faint. In this respect it differs significantly from the globular cluster systems surrounding typical giant galaxies. The observation that most of the globular clusters in the outer halo of the Galaxy are also subluminous may be understood by assuming that these clusters once also belonged to faint cluster-rich dwarf systems that were subsequently captured and destroyed by the Milky Way system.
