Abstract
Extragalactic globular clusters are viewed as single points of light, as the density of their stars make them individually indiscernible. The aim of this study was to find a correlation between the integrated colour of globular star clusters and the metallicity of their individual stars. This was accomplished by using the colour magnitudes and metallicities of individual stars from 11 cluster models based on work from Girardi et al. Integrated colour-metallicity diagrams found the relationship between clusters to be an increasing two-step linear function for each of the six colour ratios examined. To validate the findings, the F475W-F814W relationship was applied to integrated colour data of 5557 clusters from the real galaxy NGC 6166. Histograms taken of the colour and metallicity both showed non-gaussian distributions. Bimodal gaussian fits were applied to both and found that each exhibited the presence of subpopulations: one metal-poor (μ = -1.59), and one metal-rich (μ = -0.41). This suggests the occurrence of galactic mergers with NGC 6166 to create the population structure of clusters that is currently seen.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
