The Observational and Theoretical Tidal Radii of Globular Clusters in M87
Jeremy J. Webb, Alison Sills, William E. Harris
Globular clusters have linear sizes (tidal radii) which theory tells us are determined by their masses and by the gravitational potential of their host galaxy. To explore the relat…
