ABSTRACT The assembly history of the Milky Way (MW) is a rapidly evolving subject, with numerous small accretion events and at least one major merger proposed in the MW’s history. Accreted alongside these dwarf galaxies are globular clusters (GCs), which act as spatially coherent remnants of these p...
