Were the LMC Globular Clusters Formed in a Disk?
Sidney van den Bergh
The radial velocities of the 13 globular clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud have a dispersion of 28 km s relative to the HI rotation curve of the LMC, compared to a disp…
The Formation and Evolution of Massive Star Clusters: Historical Overview
Sidney van den Bergh
Some factors connecting the evolutionary histories of galaxies with the characteristics of their cluster systems are reviewed. Unanswered questions include: How is one to understan…
History of the Local Group
Sidney van den Bergh
It is suggested that M31 was created by the early merger, and subsequent violent relaxation, of two or more massive metal-rich ancestral galaxies within the core of the Andromeda s…
Some Global Characteristics of the Galactic Globular Cluster System
Sidney van den Bergh
The relations between the luminosities , the metallicities , the Galactocentric radii , and the central concentration indices of Galactic globular clusters ar…
