“stream is the most recently..” --> “stream is a recently discovered” (since qualifiers
like “the most recent” “the only known” always get superceded fairly quickly).
typo: “fir the orbit”
“time of disruption” - clarify what this means exactly, i.e. initial, final, when 50% lost etc.
Intro:
Para 1: “but suggest ON THE BASIS OF THE NARROWNESS OF THE STREAM AND ITS
STELLAR POPULATIONS that it was likely produced by a globular cluster."
Para 2: “First, it is the stream closest..” --> “It is the first stream uncovered close to the Galactic
center and ...”. You then say that it’s short length means it was recently disrupted, but is this
obvious? Could it not in principle be a long stream viewed close to edge on?
Sec 3/Table 3:
the metallicity you infer is quite a bit lower than Bernard’s. Maybe I missed it, but would
it be worth pointing out that this largely stems from the assumption of a different
reddening (which I think is the case)?
