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…

Massive star cluster formation III. Early mass segregation during cluster assembly

Brooke Polak, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Ralf S. Klessen +6

Mass segregation is seen in many star clusters, but whether massive stars form in the center of a cluster or migrate there dynamically is still debated. N-body simulations have sho…

Massive star cluster formation II. Runaway stars as fossils of sub-cluster mergers

Brooke Polak, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low, Ralf S. Klessen +6

Two main mechanisms have classically been proposed for the formation of runaway stars. In the binary supernova scenario (BSS), a massive star in a binary explodes as a supernova, e…
