11 Goals Detect and analyze the CG system in FG Prototype, NGC 1132 Nearest one, NGC 6482 Most massive known to date, ESO Compare with cd and giant ellipticals in clusters Infer reliable assembling histories Detect and analyze the CG system in Abell 1689 Test if the formation of GC per mass is universal Establish a galaxy formation scenario

24 Preliminary Results GC color distribution is bimodal. If X-ray luminosity is an indication of the total mass, the GC population is bluer for more massive systems. Spatial distribution of GC is more extended than the galaxy light for NGC6482. However, is the opposite for NGC1132 and ESO The SN for ESO is anomalous. Isophotes disky. Product of mergers with mass ratio 4:1 Deviations from Sérsic profiles signatures of recent interaction.
