[Fe/H] distributions for the GCs of Sgr. The left panel shows the overall metallicity distribution of Sgr. The right panel displays the distributions of the core and the streams, with the red line for the main body and the blue line for the streams. The main body is richer than the streams. This is consistent with the evolutionary characteristics of Sgr, where the outer, older GCs are first pulled into the stellar stream.
