Scientific paper

For Galactic globulars, the correlation between cluster radius and Galactocentric distance is found to be marginally stronger than that between cluster metallicity and Galactocentric distance. At a given Galactocentric distance cluster radius does not depend significantly on metallicity. Faint halo globulars tend to be larger than bright halo clusters but for objects within 10 kpc of the Galactic centre the cluster radius is independent of luminosity. Clusters in the halo of M31 appear to obey systematics similar to those of Galactic globular clusters.
