Can filamentary accretion explain the orbital poles of the Milky Way satellites?
M. S. Pawlowski, P. Kroupa, G. Angus +3
Several scenarios have been suggested to explain the phase-space distribution of the Milky Way (MW) satellite galaxies in a disc of satellites (DoS). To quantitatively compare thes…

The Role of the IGIMF in the chemical evolution of the solar neighbourhood
Francesco Calura, Simone Recchi, Francesca Matteucci +1
The integrated galactic initial mass function (IGIMF) is computed from the combination of the stellar initial mass function (IMF) and the embedded cluster mass function, described…

Recurrent gas accretion by massive star clusters, multiple stellar populations and mass thresholds for spherical stellar systems
Jan Pflamm-Altenburg, Pavel Kroupa
We explore the gravitational influence of pressure supported stellar systems on the internal density distribution of a gaseous environment. We conclude that compact massive star cl…
