Globular cluster mass fractions, in-situ fractions, metallicity spreads, and spatial profiles in simulated compact galaxies can identify massive relic analogs with early assembly histories.
N-body models of young and old dense star clusters show BBH mergers span primary masses from ~6 to >100 solar masses with a peak near 8 solar masses, reproducing the LIGO-inferred distribution, with low-mass mergers mostly from metal-rich clusters.

Mass Distribution of Binary Black Hole Mergers from Young and Old Dense Star Clusters
N-body models of young and old dense star clusters show BBH mergers span primary masses from ~6 to >100 solar masses with a peak near 8 solar masses, reproducing the LIGO-inferred distribution, with low-mass mergers mostly from metal-rich clusters.
