Massive Star Cluster Formation with Binaries. I. Evolution of Binary Populations

Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier, Alison Sills, William E. Harris +7

We study the evolution of populations of binary stars within massive cluster-forming regions. We simulate the formation of young massive star clusters within giant molecular clouds…

Two waves of massive stars running away from the young cluster R136

Mitchel Stoop, Alex de Koter, Lex Kaper +10

Massive stars are predominantly born in stellar associations or clusters. Their radiation fields, stellar winds, and supernovae strongly impact their local environment. In the firs…

Evaluating the gravitational wave detectability of globular clusters and the Magellanic Clouds for LISA

Wouter G. J. van Zeist, Gijs Nelemans, Simon F. Portegies Zwart +1

We use the stellar evolution code BPASS and the gravitational wave simulation code LEGWORK to simulate populations of compact binaries that may be detected by the in-development sp…

Trajectory of the stellar flyby that shaped the outer solar system

Susanne Pfalzner, Amith Govind, Simon Portegies Zwart

Unlike the Solar System planets, thousands of smaller bodies beyond Neptune orbit the Sun on eccentric ( 0.1) and ( 3) orbits. While migration of the giant planets…

On the survival of resonant and non-resonant planetary systems in star clusters

Katja Stock, Maxwell X. Cai, Rainer Spurzem +2

Despite the discovery of thousands of exoplanets in recent years, the number of known exoplanets in star clusters remains tiny. This may be a consequence of close stellar encounter…

Searching for Solar Siblings in APOGEE and DR2 with N-body Simulations

Jeremy J. Webb, Natalie Price-Jones, Jo Bovy +4

We make use of APOGEE and data to identify stars that are consistent with being born in the same association or star cluster as the Sun. We limit our analysis to stars that…
