Scientific paper

The surface density profiles and the tidal radii have been found for 23 star clusters in the SMC, by means of star counts. The core radii concentration parameters were derived by fitting theoretical models. The masses of the {red} and {blue} clusters, compared to those of globular clusters of our own Galaxy, were found to be systematically 10 times less massive. The {blue} clusters seem to have a dynamical behaviour similar to the galactic globulars.
