The Kinematic Richness of Star Clusters I. Isolated Spherical Models with Primordial Anisotropy
Philip G. Breen, Anna Lisa Varri, Douglas C. Heggie
We investigate the dynamical evolution of isolated equal-mass star cluster models by means of direct N-body simulations, primarily focusing on the effects of the presence of primor…

Stellar envelopes of globular clusters embedded in dark mini-haloes
Jorge Peñarrubia, Anna Lisa Varri, Philip G. Breen +2
We show that hard encounters in the central regions of globular clusters embedded in dark matter (DM) haloes necessarily lead to the formation of gravitationally-bound stellar enve…

An Approximate Analytic Model of a Star Cluster with Potential Escapers
Kathryne J. Daniel, Douglas C. Heggie, Anna Lisa Varri
In the context of a star cluster moving on a circular galactic orbit, a "potential escaper" is a cluster star that has orbital energy greater than the escape energy, and yet is con…
