A Bayesian Exploration of the Mass of Ursa Major III: Kinematics, Rotation and their influence on the Mass to Light Ratio

T. R. Adams, B. J. Brewer, G. F. Lewis

We investigate the kinematics of the potential ultra-faint dwarf galaxy (UFD) UMa III/U1 using Bayesian inference to search for the signal of any potential intrinsic rotation. The…

Chemo-dynamical substructure in the M31 inner halo globular clusters: Further evidence for a recent accretion event

Geraint F. Lewis, Brendon J. Brewer, Dougal Mackey +4

Based upon a metallicity selection, we identify a significant sub-population of the inner halo globular clusters in the Andromeda Galaxy which we name the Dulais Structure. It is d…

Mass transfer in eccentric binaries: the new Oil-on-Water SPH technique

Ross P. Church, Johann Dischler, Melvyn B. Davies +3

To measure the onset of mass transfer in eccentric binaries we have developed a two-phase SPH technique. Mass transfer is important in the evolution of close binaries, and a key is…

Blue Stragglers as Stellar Collision Products: the Angular Momentum Question

Alison Sills, Tim Adams, Melvyn B. Davies

We investigate the structure and evolution of blue stragglers stars which were formed from direct stellar collisions between main sequence stars in globular clusters. In particular…

Brown dwarf populations in open clusters

Tim Adams, Melvyn B. Davies, Richard F. Jameson +1

We present the results of multiple simulations of open clusters, modelling the dynamics of a population of brown dwarf members. We consider the effects of a large range of primordi…

High-resolution simulations of stellar collisions between equal-mass main-sequence stars in globular clusters

Alison Sills, Tim Adams, Melvyn Davies +1

We performed high-resolution simulations of two stellar collisions relevant for stars in globular clusters. We considered one head-on collision and one off-axis collision between t…
