Black holes and core expansion in massive star clusters
A. D. Mackey, M. I. Wilkinson, M. B. Davies +1
We present the results from realistic N-body modelling of massive star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds. We have computed eight simulations with N ~ 10^5 particles; six of these w…
Photometry of Magellanic Cloud clusters with the Advanced Camera for Surveys - II. The unique LMC cluster ESO 121-SC03
A. D. Mackey, M. J. Payne, G. F. Gilmore
We present the results of photometric measurements from images of the LMC cluster ESO 121-SC03 taken with HST/ACS. Our resulting CMD reaches 3 magnitudes below the main-sequence tu…
Photometry of Magellanic Cloud clusters with the Advanced Camera for Surveys - I. The old LMC clusters NGC 1928, 1939 and Reticulum
A. D. Mackey, G. F. Gilmore
(Abridged) We present the results of photometric measurements from images of the LMC globular clusters NGC 1928, 1939 and Reticulum taken with ACS on HST. F555W and F814W exposures…
RR Lyrae stars in four globular clusters in the Fornax dwarf galaxy
A. D. Mackey, G. F. Gilmore
(Abridged) We have surveyed four globular clusters in the Fornax dwarf galaxy for RR Lyrae stars, using archival HST observations. We identify 197 new RR Lyrae stars in these four…
Surface Brightness Profiles and Structural Parameters for 53 Rich Stellar Clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud
A. D. Mackey, G. F. Gilmore
We have compiled a pseudo-snapshot data set of two-colour observations from the Hubble Space Telescope archive for a sample of 53 rich LMC clusters with ages 10^6-10^10 yr. We pres…
Mass segregation in rich clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud - III. Implications for the initial mass function
R. de Grijs, G. F. Gilmore, A. D. Mackey +4
The distribution of core radii of rich clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) systematically increases in both upper limit and spread with increasing cluster age. Cluster-to-…
