How a fake Kepler portrait became iconic
Steven N. Shore, Václav Pavlík
For several decades a portrait of Johannes Kepler has been widely circulating among professional astronomers, scientific and academic institutions, and the general public. Despite…
Close encounters with the Death Star: Interactions between collapsed bodies and the Solar System
Václav Pavlík, Steven N. Shore
Aims: We aim to investigate the consequences of a fast massive stellar remnant - a black hole (BH) or a neutron star (NS) - encountering a planetary system. Methods: We modelled a…
New insights into star cluster evolution towards energy equipartition
Václav Pavlík, Enrico Vesperini
We present the results of a study aimed at exploring the evolution towards energy equipartition in star cluster models with different initial degrees of anisotropy in the velocity…
Primordial mass segregation of star clusters with primordial binaries
Václav Pavlík
Observations of young star-forming regions suggest that star clusters are born completely mass segregated. These initial conditions are, however, gradually lost as the star cluster…
Primordial mass segregation of star clusters: The role of binary stars
Václav Pavlík
Observational results of young star-forming regions suggest that star clusters are completely mass segregated at birth. As a star cluster evolves dynamically, these initial conditi…
Do star clusters form in a completely mass-segregated way?
Václav Pavlík, Pavel Kroupa, Ladislav Šubr
ALMA observations of the Serpens South star-forming region suggest that stellar protoclusters may be completely mass segregated at birth. Independent observations also suggest that…
