AbstractWe describe the ACS Virgo Cluster Survey, an HST imaging survey of early-type galaxies in the Virgo Cluster. Multi-color ACS images for one hundred member galaxies, spanning a range of 450 in luminosity, are being used to study the central regions of these galaxies, their globular cluster systems, and the three-dimensional structure of Virgo itself. In terms of depth, spatial resolution, sample size and homogeneity, this represents the most comprehensive imaging survey to date of early-type galaxies in dense environments.

Fluctuation Method

We present the results of our detailed WFPC2-based photometric study of the globular cluster systems (GCS) of over 60 elliptical and SO galaxies. Approximately 50% of the GCSs of ellipticals, and at least 15–20% of S0s reveal bimodality in the color distribution. We trace the variation in GCS properties with Hubble type and discuss the implications on the various models of galaxy (and cluster system) formation. We also provide evidence that the globular cluster luminosity function is an excellent distance indicator with an accuracy comparable to the surface brightness fluctuation method.
