Annotation
The central part of the stellar globular cluster M15 has been investigated in search of the effects of gravitational focusing. The feasibility of this effect has been established by comparing the dispersion of the brightness of stars in the central part of the cluster, where this process more probable is, with the brightness of stars in a region distant from the center. The magnitudes of the dispersions have been estimated by the maximum likelihood method.
