英文摘要Abstract This study presents the mass segregation of 35 Galactic globular clusters (GCs) through the radial profile of the mean mass of main-sequence stars. Most of them are found to be mass segregated due to two-body relaxation effects. The GCs with a larger core to half-mass–radius ratio tend to be less mass segregated. Recent simulations show that energy sources can quench mass segregation in relaxed GCs. Combining mass segregation and core binary fractions (fc), we find a moderate anticorrelation between them when fc is below 0.15. Four GCs that have a small amount of mass segregation are selected as possible intermediate-mass black hole holders. However, none of them are strong candidates considering their half-mass relaxation times.
