Dynamical evolution of massless particles in star clusters with NBODY6++GPU-MASSLESS: I. Free-floating MLPs
Francesco Flammini Dotti, M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, Peter Berczik +2
Context. Low-mass bodies, such as comets, asteroids, planetesimals, and free-floating planets, are continuously injected into the intra-cluster environment after expulsion from the…
Growth of Seed Black Holes in Galactic Nuclei
Rainer Spurzem, Francesco Rizzuto, Manuel Arca Sedda +5
The evolution of dense star clusters is followed by direct high-accuracy N-body simulation. The problem is to first order a gravitational N-body problem, but stars evolve due to as…
Investigating the UV-excess in star clusters with -body simulations: predictions for future CSST observations
Xiaoying Pang, Qi Shu, Long Wang +1
We study the origin of the UV-excess in star clusters by performing N-body simulations of six clusters with N=10k and N=100k (single stars & binary systems) and metallicities of Z=…
The impact of stellar evolution on rotating star clusters: the gravothermal-gravogyro catastrophe and the formation of a bar of black holes
A. W. H. Kamlah, R. Spurzem, P. Berczik +7
We present results from a suite of eight direct N-body simulations, performed with \textsc{Nbody6++GPU}, representing realistic models of rotating star clusters with up to $1.1\tim…
The long-term evolution of main-sequence binaries in DRAGON simulations
Qi Shu, Xiaoying Pang, Francesco Flammini Dotti +3
We present a comprehensive investigation of main-sequence (MS) binaries in the DRAGON simulations, which are the first one-million particles direct -body simulations of globular…
Planetary Systems in a Star Cluster II: intermediate-mass black holes and planetary systems
Francesco Flammini Dotti, M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, Qi Shu +2
Most stars form in dense stellar environments. It is speculated that some dense star clusters may host intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs), which may have formed from runaway col…
Planetary systems in star clusters
M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, Qi Shu, Maxwell Xu Cai +1
Thousands of confirmed and candidate exoplanets have been identified in recent years. Consequently, theoretical research on the formation and dynamical evolution of planetary syste…
Planetary Systems in Star Clusters
Maxwell Xu Cai, Rainer Spurzem, M. B. N. Kouwenhoven
In the solar neighborhood, where the typical relaxation timescale is larger than the cosmic age, at least 10\% to 15\% of Sun-like stars have planetary systems with Jupiter-mass pl…
