Investigating mass segregation process in globular clusters with Blue Straggler Stars: the impact of dark remnants
Emiliano Alessandrini, Barbara Lanzoni, Francesco Rosario Ferraro +2
We present the results of a set of N-body simulations aimed at exploring how the process of mass segregation (as traced by the spatial distribution of blue straggler stars, BSSs) i…

Dynamical friction in multi-component evolving globular clusters
Emiliano Alessandrini, Barbara Lanzoni, Paolo Miocchi +3
We use the Chandrasekhar formalism and direct N-body simulations to study the effect of dynamical friction on a test object only slightly more massive than the field stars, orbitin…
