Isolated massive stars in the Galactic center: The dynamic contribution from the Arches and Quintuplet star clusters

Maryam Habibi, Andrea Stolte, Stefan Harfst

Recently, more than 100 Wolf-Rayet and OB stars were identified in the Galactic center. About a third of these sources are not spatially associated with any of the known star clust…

The Evolution of Protoplanetary Disks in the Arches Cluster

C. Olczak, T. Kaczmarek, S. Harfst +2

Most stars form in a cluster environment. These stars are initially surrounded by discs from which potentially planetary systems form. Of all cluster environments starburst cluster…

The Cosmogrid Simulation: Statistical Properties of Small Dark Matter Halos

Tomoaki Ishiyama, Steven Rieder, Junichiro Makino +7

We present the results of the "Cosmogrid" cosmological N-body simulation suites based on the concordance LCDM model. The Cosmogrid simulation was performed in a 30Mpc box with 2048…

Simulating the universe on an intercontinental grid of supercomputers

Simon Portegies Zwart, Tomoaki Ishiyama, Derek Groen +7

Understanding the universe is hampered by the elusiveness of its most common constituent, cold dark matter. Almost impossible to observe, dark matter can be studied effectively by…

Reconstructing the Arches I: Constraining the Initial Conditions

S. Harfst, S. Portegies Zwart, A. Stolte

We have performed a series of N-body simulations to model the Arches cluster. Our aim is to find the best fitting model for the Arches cluster by comparing our simulations with obs…

A study of major mergers using a multi-phase ISM code

J. Weniger, Ch. Theis, S. Harfst

Galaxy interactions are a common phenomenon in clusters of galaxies. Especially major mergers are of particular importance, because they can change the morphological type of galaxi…
