Scientific paper

Observations of 235 red stars in globular clusters of the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds are presented. The stars were found by blink comparison of V and I photographs of six SMC and 36 LMC globular clusters. Spectroscopic observations reveal 44 of the red stars detected to be of types Ctm, M or C, indicating that some clusters do contain M or C stars, while others, including those in the LMC similar in many ways to galactic halo-type clusters, do not. The remaining clusters are found to cover a wide range of ages, down to 500 million years, and have carbon star masses from two to five times that of the sun.
