Figure 2: Top panel: metallicity distribution derived from (U-B) colours of 69 GCs which have (U-B) photometric errors less than 0.1 mag. All photometry is corrected for Galactic extinction. Bottom panel: comparison between the derived metallicity distribution (shown in top panel) and that derived by Harris et al. (2003) using the metallicity sensitive (C-T1) index. |
