A search for stellar tidal debris of defunct dwarf galaxies around globular clusters in the inner Galactic halo

In the hierarchical formation scenario in which the outer halo of the Milky Way is the result of the continuous accretion of low-mass galaxies, a fraction of the Galactic globular cluster system might have originated in and been accreted with already extinct dwarf galaxies. In this context, we expec...
