Chemical enrichment in cosmological, smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations
Robert P. C. Wiersma, Joop Schaye, Tom Theuns +2
(Abridged) We present an implementation of stellar evolution and chemical feedback for smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations. We consider the timed release of individua…
The effect of photo-ionization on the cooling rates of enriched, astrophysical plasmas
Robert P. C. Wiersma, Joop Schaye, Britton D. Smith
Radiative cooling is central to a wide range of astrophysical problems. Despite its importance, cooling rates are generally computed using very restrictive assumptions, such as col…
Observations of metals in the intra-cluster medium
N. Werner, F. Durret, T. Ohashi +2
Because of their deep gravitational potential wells, clusters of galaxies retain all the metals produced by the stellar populations of the member galaxies. Most of these metals res…
The Effect of Pre-Main Sequence Stars on Star Cluster Dynamics
R. Wiersma, A. Sills, S. Portegies Zwart
We investigate the effects of the addition of pre-main sequence evolution to star cluster simulations. We allowed stars to follow pre-main sequence tracks that begin at the deuteri…
