" Constraining early galaxy formation with extragalactic globular cluster systems "
Lee Spitler (Swinburne University)
Systems of globular clusters constitute one of the oldest, distinct
stellar systems observable in galaxies today. Most globular clusters
formed approximately ~12 gigayear ago, hence their properties are
sensitive to the conditions at this early epoch. I will discuss our
efforts to determine the influence of such conditions on the present-day
properties of galaxies by contrasting the GC systems in host galaxies of
different masses, environments and morphologies.
