The Fundamental Building Blocks of Galaxies
Pavel Kroupa
Most stars form in compact, dense embedded clusters with memberships ranging from a dozen stars to many millions of stars. Embedded clusters containing more than a few hundred star…
IMF variations and their implications for Supernovae numbers
C. Weidner, P. Kroupa
The stellar initial mass function (IMF) integrated over an entire galaxy is an integral over all separate star-formation events. Since most stars form in star clusters with differe…
How star clusters could survive low star formation efficiencies
M. Fellhauer, P. Kroupa
After the stars of a new, embedded star cluster have formed they blow the remaining gas out of the cluster. Especially winds of high mass stars and definitely the on-set of the fir…
A Formation Scenario for the Heavy-Weight Cluster W3 in NGC 7252
M. Fellhauer, P. Kroupa
The young star cluster W3 (age 300-500 Myr) in NGC 7252 is the most luminous star cluster known to date. Dynamical mass estimates result in 8 +/- 2 * 10^7 M_sun. With an effective…
