The ACS Fornax Cluster Survey. III. globular cluster specific frequencies of early-type galaxies
The globular cluster (GC) specific frequency (S N), defined as the number of GCs per unit galactic luminosity, represents the efficiency of GC formation (and survival) compared to field stars. Despite the naive expectation that star cluster formation should scale directly with star formation, this e...
