ROLLIN': Rotating globular cluster simulations II. The complex morphology of globular clusters driven by multi-scale dynamics

Arn Marklund, Paolo Bianchini, Anna Lisa Varri +2

Globular clusters (GCs) are inherently non-spherical systems that in many cases show internal rotation. Typically, rotation is considered the main driver of GC morphology; however,…

Disruption of a Giant: Spectroscopic Identification of Members in the Periphery and Tidal Tails of Centauri

P. B. Kuzma, A. M. N. Ferguson, A. L. Varri +1

Centauri ( Cen, NGC\,5139) is one of the most enigmatic globular clusters in the Milky Way, with the recent detection of tidal tails adding further to its complexity. We rep…

The chemo-dynamical complexity of ω Centauri: different kinematics for different populations

G. Pagnini, P. Bianchini, P. Di Matteo +1

The origin of ω Centauri remains one of the key open problems in stellar dynamics and chemical evolution. Its large abundance spreads and multiple populations suggest a formation h…

ROLLIN': Rotating globular cluster simulations. I. The kinematic evolution of realistic direct N-body models

P. Bianchini, A. L. Varri, A. Askar +2

Internal rotation has emerged as a fundamental feature of globular clusters (GCs), yet its origin and long-term evolution remain poorly understood. We explore the evolution of rota…

The Nephele ecosystem: stars, globular clusters, and stellar streams associated with the progenitor galaxy of Centauri

G. Pagnini, P. Di Matteo, M. Haywood +7

Globular clusters (GCs) and their associated stellar streams are key tracers of the hierarchical assembly history of the Milky Way. Centauri, the most massive and chemically co…

Gaps in stellar streams as a result of globular cluster fly-bys

Salvatore Ferrone, Marco Montuori, Paola Di Matteo +10

Thin stellar streams, such as those resulting from the tidal disruption of globular clusters, have long been known and used as probes of the gravitational potential of our Galaxy,…
