We present an analysis of globular clusters (GCs) of dwarf galaxies in the Perseus galaxy cluster that explores the relationship between dwarf galaxy properties and their GCs. Our focus is on GC numbers (NGC) and GC half-number radii (RGC) around dwarf galaxies, and their relations with host galaxy stellar masses (M*), central surface brightnesses (μ0), and effective radii (Re). This work is unique due to its large sample size and the absence of pre-selection based on μ0 and RGC for dwarf galaxies. Interestingly, we find that at a given stellar mass, RGC is almost independent of the host galaxy μ0 and Re, while RGC/Re depends on μ0 and Re. Lower surface brightness and diffuse dwarf galaxies show RGC/Re ≍ 1, while higher surface brightness and compact dwarf galaxies show RGC/Re ≍ 1.5─2. This means that for dwarf galaxies of similar stellar mass, the GCs have a similar median extent; however, their distribution is different from the field stars of their host. Additionally, low surface brightness and diffuse dwarf galaxies on average have a higher NGC than high surface brightness and compact dwarf galaxies at any given stellar mass. We also find that ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) and non-UDGs in the sample have a similar RGC, while UDGs have a smaller RGC/Re (typically less than one) and a three to four times higher NGC than non-UDGs. Furthermore, when examining nucleated versus non-nucleated dwarf galaxies, we found that for M* > 108 M⊙, nucleated dwarf galaxies seem to have a smaller RGC and RGC/Re, with no significant differences seen between their NGC except at M* < 108 M⊙, where the nucleated dwarf galaxies tend to have a higher NGC. Lastly, we explored the stellar-to-halo mass ratio (SHMR) of dwarf galaxies (halo mass based on NGC) and conclude that the Perseus cluster dwarf galaxies follow the expected SHMR at z = 0 extrapolated down to M* = 106 M⊙. ⋆ This paper is published on behalf of the Euclid Consortium.
