The global geometrical property of jet events in high-energy nuclear collisions

Shi-Yong Chen, Wei Dai, Shan-Liang Zhang +2

We present the first theoretical study of medium modifications of the global geometrical pattern, i.e., transverse sphericity () distribution of jet events with parton e…

STIS Spectroscopy of Young Star Clusters in "The Antennae" Galaxies (NGC 4038/4039)

Bradley C. Whitmore, Diane Gilmore, C. Leitherer +6

Long-slit spectra of several dozen young star clusters have been obtained at three positions in the Antennae galaxies with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) and its 5…

What Fraction of the Young Clusters in the Antennae Galaxies are "Missing"?

B. C. Whitmore, Q. Zhang

A reexamination of the correspondence between 6 cm radio continuum sources and young star clusters in the Antennae galaxies indicates that 85 % of the strong thermal sources have o…

Formation and Disruption of Globular Star Clusters

S. Michael Fall, Qing Zhang

In the first part of this article, we review observations of the mass and luminosity functions of young and old star cluster systems. We also review some of the physical processes…

Dynamical Evolution of the Mass Function of Globular Star Clusters

S. Michael Fall, Qing Zhang

We present a series of simple, largely analytical models to compute the effects of disruption on the mass function of star clusters. Our calculations include evaporation by two-bod…

A Multi-Wavelength Study of the Young Star Clusters and Interstellar Medium in the Antennae Galaxies (NGC 4038/9)

Qing Zhang, S. Michael Fall, Bradley C. Whitmore

We report on a multi-wavelength study of the relationship between young star clusters in the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038/9) and their interstellar environment, with the goal of und…
