The early evolution of young massive clusters: The kinematic history of NGC6611 / M16

Mitchel Stoop, Lex Kaper, Alex de Koter +3

In the first few Myr the massive stars dynamically interact, produce runaways and affect the initial binary population. Observing and interpreting the dynamics of young massive clu…

Concurrent formation of supermassive stars and globular clusters: implications for early self-enrichment

Mark Gieles, Corinne Charbonnel, Martin Krause +7

We present a model for the concurrent formation of globular clusters (GCs) and supermassive stars (SMSs, ) to address the origin of the HeCNONaMgAl abundance…

The difference in metallicity distribution functions of halo stars and globular clusters as a function of galaxy type: A tracer of globular cluster formation and evolution

Henny J. G. L. M. Lamers, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Nate Bastian +3

Observations of globular clusters (GCs) and field stars in the halos of the giant elliptical galaxy Cen A and the spiral galaxy M31 show a large range of cluster-to-star number rat…

The evolution of the global stellar mass function of star clusters: an analytic description

Henny J. G. L. M. Lamers, Holger Baumgardt, Mark Gieles

The evolution of the global stellar mass function (MF) of star clusters is studied based on a large set of N-body simulations of clusters with a range of initial masses, initial co…

Formation versus destruction: the evolution of the star cluster population in galaxy mergers

J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, F. Inti Pelupessy, Henny J. G. L. M. Lamers +3

(Abridged) Interacting galaxies are well-known for their high star formation rates and rich star cluster populations, but the rapidly changing tidal field can also efficiently dest…

Stellar Clusters in M83: Formation, evolution, disruption and the influence of environment

N. Bastian, A. Adamo, M. Gieles +6

We study the stellar cluster population in two adjacent fields in the nearby, face-on spiral galaxy, M83, using WFC3/HST imaging. The clusters are selected through visual inspectio…
