Scientific paper

We study the entire star cluster population in the disk of M51 by using
radius measurements, and we see evidence for a universal preferred
radius for both young and old cluster populations and for an increased
cluster formation rate at a galactocentric distance of ˜6 kpc,
which is similar to the corotation radius.
