Dynamical Evolution of Outer-Halo Globular Clusters
Andreas H. W. Küpper, Akram H. Zonoozi, Hosein Haghi +5
Outer-halo globular clusters show large half-light radii and flat stellar mass functions, depleted in low-mass stars. Using N-body simulations of globular clusters on eccentric orb…
The Sizes of Globular Clusters as Tracers of Galactic Halo Potentials
Akram Hasani Zonoozi, Malihe Rabiee, Hosein Haghi +1
We present -body simulations of globular clusters, exploring the effect of different galactic potentials on cluster sizes, . For various galactocentric distances, , we…
Globular Cluster Streams as Galactic High-Precision Scales
A. H. W. Küpper, E. Balbinot, A. Bonaca +4
Tidal streams of globular clusters are ideal tracers of the Galactic gravitational potential. Compared to the few known, complex and diffuse dwarf-galaxy streams, they are kinemati…
Chaotic Dispersal of Tidal Debris
Adrian M. Price-Whelan, Kathryn V. Johnston, Monica Valluri +3
Several long, dynamically cold stellar streams have been observed around the Milky Way Galaxy, presumably formed from the tidal disruption of globular clusters. In integrable poten…
Globular Cluster Streams as Galactic High-Precision Scales - The Poster Child Palomar 5
Andreas H. W. Küpper, Eduardo Balbinot, Ana Bonaca +4
Using the example of the tidal stream of the Milky Way globular cluster Palomar 5 (Pal 5), we demonstrate how observational data on streams can be efficiently reduced in dimensiona…
