The Globular Cluster System of the Virgo Cluster Ultradiffuse Galaxy VCC 615

The Globular Cluster System of the Virgo Cluster Ultradiffuse Galaxy VCC 615

We use Hubble Space Telescope imaging to study the globular cluster system of the Virgo Cluster ultradiffuse galaxy (UDG) VCC 615. We select globular cluster candidates through a combination of size and color, while simultaneously rejecting contamination from background galaxies that would be unreso...
