Major Mergers Mean Major Offset: Drivers of Intrinsic Scatter in the MGCS–Mh Scaling Relation for Massive Elliptical Galaxies
In this work, we determine the total globular cluster (GC) counts and globular cluster system (GCS) total mass estimates for 27 extremely massive elliptical galaxies. The GC 2D spatial distributions of these galaxies were created from photometry of Hubble Space Telescope images using DOLPHOT in the...
