Formation and disruption of wide binaries in star clusters revealed by N-body simulations

Abylay Bissekenov, Xiaoying Pang, Rainer Spurzem +3

Wide (soft) binaries are expected to be rapidly disrupted in dense stellar environments, yet they are observed in both the Galactic field and open clusters (OCs). In this paper, we…

Searching for White Dwarf Candidates Formed Through Binary evolution in Star Clusters

Huahui Yan, Li Wang, David R. Miller +11

White dwarfs (WDs), the evolutionary endpoints of most stars, can form through both single-star and binary channels. While single-star evolutionary models enable reliable WD age es…

Evolution of star clusters with initial bulk rotation via N-body simulations

Abylay Bissekenov, Xiaoying Pang, Albrecht Kamlah +6

Young star clusters can inherit bulk rotation from the molecular clouds from which they have formed. This rotation can affect the long-term evolution of a star cluster and its cons…

Rapid formation of a very massive star >50000 and subsequently an IMBH from runaway collisions. Direct N-body and Monte Carlo simulations of dense star clusters

Marcelo C. Vergara, Abbas Askar, Albrecht W. H. Kamlah +15

Context. We present simulations of a massive young star cluster using \textsc{Nbody6++GPU} and \textsc{MOCCA}. The cluster is initially more compact than previously published model…

A JWST project on 47 Tucanae. Binaries among multiple populations

A. P. Milone, A. F. Marino, M. Bernizzoni +25

Almost all globular clusters (GCs) contain multiple populations consisting of stars with varying helium and light-element abundances. These populations include first-population sta…

The 3D morphology of open clusters in the solar neighborhood III: Fractal dimension

Chang Qin, Xiaoying Pang, Mario Pasquato +2

We analyze the fractal dimension of open clusters using 3D spatial data from Gaia DR3 for 93 open clusters from Pang et al. (2024) and 127 open clusters from Hunt & Reffert (2024)…
