Abstract The IRAS Point-Source Catalog, Small-Scale Structure Catalog, and HCON1 Sky Brightness Images were searched for sources of emission that were spatially coincident with any of 144 globular clusters. The purpose was to measure or place upper limits on the amount of thermal dust emission from the clusters, which would lead to estimates and upper limits to the mass of intraglobular dust. Sputtering by hot gas in the galactic halo can destroy dust grains and thus possibly explain the absence of dust in glogular clusters.
