Structure parameters of galactic globular clusters.
Abstract
Observed and derived structure parameters are tabulated for 154 galactic globular clusters, 7 dwarf spheroidal satellites of the Galaxy, and 6 globular clusters in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal. Observational parameters listed include equatorial coordinates, apparent level of the horizontal branch, reddening, subgiant branch color at the horizontal branch level, limiting and core angular radii, integrated magnitudes, and central surface brightnesses. Derived parameters include galactic coordinates, heliocentric and galactocentric distance, metallicity, limiting and core radii, central relaxation time scale, central mass density, central velocity dispersion, and central escape velocity.
