Disk galaxies are self-similar: the universality of the HI-to-Halo mass ratio for isolated disks

Marie Korsaga, Benoit Famaey, Jonathan Freundlich +7

Observed scaling relations in galaxies between baryons and dark matter global properties are key to shed light on the process of galaxy formation and on the nature of dark matter.…

Asymmetrical tidal tails of open star clusters: stars crossing their cluster's prah challenge Newtonian gravitation

Pavel Kroupa, Tereza Jerabkova, Ingo Thies +14

After their birth a significant fraction of all stars pass through the tidal threshold (prah) of their cluster of origin into the classical tidal tails. The asymmetry between the n…

Assessing membership projection errors in star forming regions

Timothé Roland, Christian M. Boily, Laurent Cambrésy

Young stellar clusters harbour complex spatial structures emerging from the star formation process. Identifying stellar over-densities is a key step to constrain better how these s…

The effects of bar-spiral coupling on stellar kinematics in the Galaxy

Giacomo Monari, Benoit Famaey, Arnaud Siebert +3

We investigate models of the Milky Way disc taking into account simultaneously the bar and a two-armed quasi-static spiral pattern. Away from major resonance overlaps, the mean ste…

Hubble-Lemaître fragmentation and the path to equilibrium of merger-driven cluster formation

Julien Dorval, Christian M. Boily, Estelle Moraux +2

This paper discusses a new method to generate self-coherent initial conditions for young substructured stellar cluster. The expansion of a uniform system allows stellar sub-structu…

One moment in time - modeling star formation in the Antennae

Simon J. Karl, Thorsten Naab, Peter H. Johansson +4

We present a new high-resolution N-body/SPH simulation of an encounter of two gas-rich disk galaxies which closely matches the morphology and kinematics of the interacting Antennae…
