Scientific paper

We consider the evolution of globular clusters and dwarf galaxies under the gravitational influence of an isothermal halo. Evaporation rates are compared to orbital decay rates for a variety of initial cluster masses, central concentrations, and orbital sizes and eccentricities. Clusters which survive for a Hubble time fall into a mass range which depends most crucially on the original orbital parameters.
