Journal ArticleDOI

Extragalactic Globular Clusters and Galaxy Formation

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that metal-poor GCs formed in low-mass dark matter halos in the early universe and that their properties reflect biased galaxy assembly, while metal-rich GCs were born in the subsequent dissipational buildup of their parent galaxies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Properties of Globular Cluster Systems in Nearby Early-Type Galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, a study of globular clusters (GCs) in 17 relatively nearby early-type galaxies, based on deep F555W and F814W images from the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2, on board the Hubble Space Telescope, was performed and compared with GCs in the Milky Way.
Journal ArticleDOI

An Extremely Luminous Panchromatic Outburst from the Nucleus of a Distant Galaxy

Andrew J. Levan, +68 more
- 08 Jul 2011 - 
TL;DR: Multiwavelength observations of a unique γ-ray–selected transient detected by the Swift satellite, accompanied by bright emission across the electromagnetic spectrum, and whose properties are unlike any previously observed source are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

M31 Globular Clusters: Colors and Metallicities* ** ***

TL;DR: In this paper, a new catalog of photometric and spectroscopic data on M31 globular clusters (GCs) is presented, which includes new optical and near-infrared photometry for a substantial fraction of the 435 clusters and cluster candidates.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the origin of globular clusters in elliptical and cD galaxies

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the origin of these distinct GC populations, the implications for galaxy formation and evolution, and identify several new properties of GC systems, including the metal-rich and metal-poor sub-clusters.
