Dynamical Evolution of Substructured Star Clusters at 3 kpc from the Galactic Center
So-Myoung Park, Jihye Shin, Sang-Hyun Chun +3
We investigate the evolution of initial fractal clusters at 3 kpc from the Galactic Center (GC) of the Milky Way and show how red supergiant clusters (RSGCs)-like objects, which ar…
Deviations from the universal Initial Mass Function in binary star clusters
Sunder S. K. Singh-Bal, George A. Blaylock-Squibbs, Richard J. Parker +1
The stellar mass distribution in star-forming regions, stellar clusters and associations, the Initial Mass Function (IMF), appears to be invariant across different star-forming env…
The same, but different: Stochasticity in binary destruction
Richard J. Parker, Simon P. Goodwin
Observations of binaries in clusters tend to be of visual binaries with separations of 10s - 100s au. Such binaries are 'intermediates' and their destruction or survival depends on…
Formation rates of star clusters in the hierarchical merging scenario
R. Smith, R. Slater, M. Fellhauer +2
Stars form with a complex and highly structured distribution. For a smooth star cluster to form from these initial conditions, the star cluster must erase this substructure. We stu…
The dynamical evolution of very-low mass binaries in open clusters
Richard J. Parker, Simon P. Goodwin
Very low-mass binaries (VLMBs), with system masses <0.2 Msun appear to have very different properties to stellar binaries. This has led to the suggestion that VLMBs form a distinct…
The formation of very wide binaries during the star cluster dissolution phase
M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, S. P. Goodwin, Richard J. Parker +3
Over the past few decades, numerous wide (>1000 au) binaries in the Galactic field and halo have been discovered. Their existence cannot be explained by the process of star formati…
