N-body Models of Rotating Globular Clusters
Andreas Ernst, Patrick Glaschke, Jose Fiestas +2
We have studied the dynamical evolution of rotating globular clusters with direct -body models. Our initial models are rotating King models; we obtained results for both equal-m…
2D Fokker-Planck models of rotating clusters
J. Fiestas, R. Spurzem, E. Kim
Globular clusters rotate significantly, and with the increasing amount of detailed morphologicaland kinematical data obtained in recent years on galactic globular clusters many int…
Performance Analysis of Direct N-Body Algorithms on Special-Purpose Supercomputers
Stefan Harfst, Alessia Gualandris, David Merritt +3
Direct-summation N-body algorithms compute the gravitational interaction between stars in an exact way and have a computational complexity of O(N^2). Performance can be greatly enh…
