Dynamical Cluster Assembly Framework (D-CAF): The Link Between Star Cluster Formation and Expansion Rates
Juan P. Farias, Alison Sills
We introduce the Dynamical Cluster Assembly Framework (D-CAF), an AMUSE-based framework designed to connect embedded star formation histories to the dynamical evolution of young st…
Simulating Star Formation and Star Cluster Assembly in the Aquila Rift Using Archival Observations
Jeremy Karam, Michiko S. Fujii, Rachel Friesen +1
We simulate star formation and star cluster assembly inside a molecular cloud with parameters we derive directly from observations of the Aquila Rift. We model the evolution of sta…
Evolution of fractality in centrally concentrated young clusters
Almat Akhmetali, Adilkhan Assilkhan, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +6
We investigate the structural evolution of young star clusters forming within centrally concentrated molecular clouds. Our simulations use the Torch framework, which integrates the…
The collision and merger products of stars do not look alike: A magnetohydrodynamics comparison
Pavan Vynatheya, Taeho Ryu, Chen Wang +2
A significant fraction of stars experience close interactions, including collisions resulting from gravitational encounters and mergers within close binary systems. These processes…
The Blue Lurker WOCS 14020: A Long-Period Post-Common-Envelope Binary in M67 Originating from a Merger in a Triple System
Emily M. Leiner, Natalie M. Gosnell, Aaron M. Geller +3
We present Hubble Space Telescope far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of a blue-lurkerwhite-dwarf (BL-WD) binary system in the 4 Gyr open cluster M67. We fit the FUV spectrum of the W…
Massive Interacting Binaries Enhance Feedback in Star-Forming Regions
Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier, Eric P. Andersson, Sabrina M. Appel +9
We present a new framework to incorporate feedback from massive interacting binaries in simulations of star cluster formation. Our new feedback model adds binary stellar evolution…
The Evolution of Substructure during Star Cluster Assembly
Edwin Laverde-Villarreal, Alison Sills, Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier +1
Star cluster formation and assembly occurs inside filamentary and turbulent molecular clouds, which imprints both spatial and kinematic substructure on the young cluster. In this p…
Dynamics of Star Cluster Formation: The Effects of Ongoing Star Formation and Stellar Feedback
Jeremy Karam, Michiko S. Fujii, Alison Sills
We perform a high resolution zoom-in simulation of star cluster assembly including the merger of two sub-clusters with initial conditions taken from previous large scale giant mole…
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…
Magnetic Field Amplification during Stellar Collisions between Low-Mass Stars
Taeho Ryu, Alison Sills, Ruediger Pakmor +2
Blue straggler stars in stellar clusters are a subset of stars that are bluer and appear younger than other cluster members, seemingly straggling behind in their evolution. They of…
Binary Disruption and Ejected Stars from Hierarchical Star Cluster Assembly
Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier, Jeremy Karam, Alison Sills +2
We simulate mergers between star clusters embedded within their natal giant molecular cloud. We extract initial conditions from cloud-scale simulations of cluster formation and int…
The Star Clusters As Links between galaxy Evolution and Star formation (SCALES) project I: Numerical method
Marta Reina-Campos, Oleg Y. Gnedin, Alison Sills +1
Stellar clusters are critical constituents within galaxies: they are the result of highest-density star formation, and through their spatially and temporally correlated feedback th…
