Insights into the 3D layered structure of nearby open clusters through N-body simulations

Kaixiang Lang, Yu Zhang, Hubiao Niu +3

Context. Open clusters (OCs) are important for understanding star formation, dynamics, and evolution. Previous studies have indicated a relationship between cluster structure and m…

Cluster aggregates surrounding Pismis 5 in the Vela Molecular Ridge

Ming Feng Qin, Yu Zhang, Jinzhong Liu +5

Context. In the Gaia era, the precision of astrometric data is unprecedented. High-quality data make it easier to find more cluster aggregates and support further confirmation of t…

Deciphering Star Cluster Evolution by Shape Morphology

Qingshun Hu, Yu Zhang, Ali Esamdin +2

We analyze the morphological evolution of open clusters and provide shape parameters for 265 open clusters. The results show that the overall shape of sample clusters becomes more…

The effects of binary interactions on parameter determinations for early-type galaxies

Yu Zhang, Jinzhong Liu, Fenghui Zhang

Based on stellar population models without (SSP) and with (BSP) binary interactions, we investigate the effects of binary interactions on parameter determinations for early-type ga…

The impact of binary stars on the colors of high-redshift galaxies

Y. Zhang, J. Liu, F. Zhang +1

Evolutionary population synthesis (EPS) models play an important role in many studies on the formation and evolution of galaxies. Most EPS models are still poorly calibrated for ce…

Integrated spectral energy distributions of binary star composite stellar populations

Zhongmu Li, Liyun Zhang, Jinzhong Liu

This paper presents theoretical integrated spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of binary star composite stellar populations (bsCSPs) in early-type galaxies, and how the bsCSP mode…

Determining gravitational wave radiation from close galaxy pairs using a binary population synthesis approach

Jinzhong Liu, Yu Zhang, Hailong Zhang +2

Context. The early phase of the coalescence of supermassive black hole (SMBH) binaries from their host galaxies provides a guaranteed source of low-frequency (nHz-Hz) gravitatio…

Testing three derivative methods of stellar population synthesis models

Yu Zhang, Zhanwen Han, Jinzhong Liu +2

The number of methods used to study the properties of galaxies is increased, and testing these methods is very important. Galactic globular clusters (GCs) provide an excellent medi…
