Globular cluster in nearby dwarf galaxies. II

DOI

We compare nuclear globular clusters (nGCs) in dwarf galaxies and Galactic GCs with extended (hot) horizontal branches (EHB-GCs) in order to test the suggested external origin of the latter and the conditions at which GC self-enrichment can operate. Using luminosities and structural parameters of nGCs in low-mass (mainly late-type) dwarf galaxies from Hubble Space Telescope (HST)/Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) imaging, we derive the present-day escape velocities (Vesc) of stellar ejecta to reach the cluster tidal radius and compare them with those of EHB-GCs.
