Abstract

We present a progress report of our wide field CCD survey of globular clusters in M31. We have covered a 3 deg × 3 deg area centered on M31, using the KPNO 0.9m and Washington <jats:italic>CMT</jats:italic><jats:sub>1</jats:sub> filters. Our survey is much deeper and more sensitive than previous surveys. We have found several hundred new globular cluster candidates in M31 in addition to confirming previously known globular clusters, and also have found a number of interlopers among previous globular cluster catalogs. We have also obtained spectra of about 500 objects among these candidates using HYDRA at the WIYN 3.5m telescope, which are used for classification and measuring the radial velocity of the candidate objects. When completed, a new master catalog of globular clusters in M31 will be made, combining the new globular clusters with the known globular clusters.
