Abstract

An extension of a result of Hatzenbuhler and Mattson gives a sufficient condition that the locally compact part of an arbitrary Tichonov space has a compactification with a countably infinite outgrowth. This leads to a characterization for almost locally compact outgrowths, and some sufficient conditions for their existence. Examples are given showing the conditions are not necessary.
