The impact of galaxy harassment on the globular cluster systems of early-type cluster dwarf galaxies
Rory Smith, Ruben Sanchez-Janssen, Michael Fellhauer +3
The dynamics of globular cluster systems (GCSs) around galaxies are often used to assess the total enclosed mass, and even to constrain the dark matter distribution. The globular c…
Infant mortality in the hierarchical merging scenario: Dependency on gas expulsion timescales
Rory Smith, Simon Goodwin, Michael Fellhauer +1
We examine the effects of gas expulsion on initially sub-structured and out-of-equilibrium star clusters. We perform N-body simulations of the evolution of star clusters in a stati…
Numerical modelling of Auriga's Wheel - a new ring galaxy
Rory Smith, Richard R. Lane, Blair C. Conn +1
We model the formation of Auriga's Wheel - a recently discovered collisional ring galaxy. Auriga's Wheel has a number of interesting features including a bridge of stars linking th…
