  The structure of a very bright (MV = -10.9) globular cluster in NGC 1023 is
analyzed on two sets of images taken with the Hubble Space Telescope. From
careful modeling of King profile fits to the cluster image, a core radius of
0.55+/-0.1 pc, effective radius 3.7+/-0.3 pc and a central V-band surface
brightness of 12.9+/-0.5 mag / square arcsec are derived. This makes the
cluster much more compact than Omega Cen, but very similar to the brightest
globular cluster in M31, G1 = Mayall II. The cluster in NGC 1023 appears to be
very highly flattened with an ellipticity of about 0.37, even higher than for
Omega Cen and G1, and similar to the most flattened clusters in the Large
Magellanic Cloud.
