The ages of Galactic globular clusters in the context of self-enrichment
T. Decressin, H. Baumgardt, P. Kroupa +2
A significant fraction of stars in globular clusters (about 70%-85%) exhibit peculiar chemical patterns with strong abundance variations in light elements along with constant abund…
The evolution of two stellar populations in globular clusters I. The dynamical mixing timescale
T. Decressin, H. Baumgardt, P. Kroupa
We investigate the long-term dynamical evolution of two distinct stellar populations of low-mass stars in globular clusters in order to study whether the energy equipartition proce…
UCDs - more massive than allowed?
M. Hilker, S. Mieske, H. Baumgardt +1
Dynamical mass estimates of ultra-compact dwarfs galaxies and massive globular clusters in the Fornax and Virgo clusters and around the giant elliptical Cen A have revealed some su…
Dynamical masses of ultra-compact dwarf galaxies in Fornax
M. Hilker, H. Baumgardt, L. Infante +3
Aims. We determine masses and mass-to-light ratios of five ultra-compact dwarf galaxies and one dwarf elliptical nucleus in the Fornax cluster from high resolution spectroscopy. Me…
Neutron Stars and Black Holes in Star Clusters
F. A. Rasio, H. Baumgardt, A. Corongiu +10
This article was co-authored by all invited speakers at the Joint Discussion on `Neutron Stars and Black Holes in Star Clusters,' which took place during the IAU General Assembly i…
Tidal Capture of Stars by Intermediate-Mass Black Holes
H. Baumgardt, C. Hopman, S. Portegies Zwart +1
Recent X-ray observations and theoretical modelling have made it plausible that some ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULX) are powered by intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs). N-body…
