Dynamical Evolution of Young Embedded Clusters: A Parameter Space Survey
Eva-Marie Proszkow, Fred C. Adams
This paper investigates the dynamical evolution of embedded stellar clusters from the protocluster stage, through the embedded star-forming phase, and out to ages of 10 Myr -- afte…
Kinematic Signatures of Subvirial Initial Conditions in Young Clusters
Eva-Marie Proszkow, Fred C. Adams, Lee W. Hartmann +1
Motivated by kinematic observations of young embedded clusters, this paper explores possible kinematic signatures produced by asphericity and departures from initial virial equilib…
Tidal Disruption of Protoclusters in Giant Molecular Clouds
Eva-Marie Proszkow, Philip C. Myers
We study the collapse of protoclusters within a giant molecular cloud (GMC) to determine the conditions under which collapse is significantly disrupted. Motivated by observations o…
A Statistical Stability Analysis of Earth-like Planetary Orbits in Binary Systems
M. Fatuzzo, F. C. Adams, R. Gauvin +1
This paper explores the stability of an Earth-like planet orbiting a solar-mass star in the presence of a stellar companion using ~ 400,000 numerical integrations. Given the chaoti…
Early Evolution of Stellar Groups and Clusters: Environmental Effects on Forming Planetary Systems
Fred C. Adams, Eva M. Proszkow, Marco Fatuzzo +1
This paper studies the dynamical evolution of young stellar clusters with = 100 - 1000 members. We use N-body simulations to explore how evolution depends on system size an…
