Radial coverage of the GC systems and ratios of stellar-to-halo mass enclosed within progressively larger radii for early-type galaxies in SLUGGS. Top panel: distributions of the median radii (Rmed, GC, blue) and of the outermost radii (Rlast, GC, orange) of the GC systems around the early types in SLUGGS. Both radii are normalised to the effective radius of the luminous galaxy (Re). Bottom panel: distributions of the ratios of stellar-to-halo mass enclosed within the effective radius (Re, green), within the median GC radius (Rmed, GC, blue), and within the outermost GC radius (Rlast, GC, orange). These are computed from the best-fit f(J) model of each galaxy. The dotted vertical line separates the regions where the dark matter dominates (left) and where the stars dominate (right).
