Simulations of the expected contamination from globular clusters in halos of galaxies that lie near the A1185 core field. The left panels shows the real distribution of globular clusters brighter than I_F814W = 27.3 mag in the ACS image of the heart of 1185. The right panel shows a superposition of 10 simulated distributions of halo globular clusters associated with the galaxies listed in Table 1 down to the same I_F814W = 27.3 mag limit and assuming no truncation of their radial distribution, as described in the text.
