The Dynamical Effects of White Dwarf Birth Kicks in Globular Star Clusters

John M. Fregeau, Harvey B. Richer, Frederic A. Rasio +1

Recent observations of the white dwarf (WD) populations in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6397 suggest that WDs receive a kick of a few km/s shortly before they are born. Using…

Monte Carlo Simulations of Star Clusters - V. The globular cluster M4

Mirek Giersz, Douglas Heggie

We describe Monte Carlo models for the dynamical evolution of the nearby globular cluster M4. The code includes treatments of two-body relaxation, three- and four-body interactions…

The core binary fractions of star clusters from realistic simulations

Jarrod R. Hurley, Sverre J. Aarseth, Michael M. Shara

We investigate the evolution of binary fractions in star clusters using N-body models of up to 100000 stars. Primordial binary frequencies in these models range from 5% to 50%. Sim…

Search for and investigation of new stellar clusters using the data from huge stellar catalogues

Sergey Koposov, Elena Glushkova, Ivan Zolotukhin

We present new automatic methods of search for star clusters using the data available in new huge stellar catalogues. Using 2MASS catalogue we have discovered over ten new open clu…
