Modeling the chemical enrichment history of the Bulge Fossil Fragment Terzan 5

Donatella Romano, Francesco R. Ferraro, Livia Origlia +9

Terzan 5 is a heavily obscured stellar system located in the inner Galaxy. It has been postulated to be a stellar relic, a Bulge Fossil Fragment witnessing the complex history of t…

Early Evolution and 3D Structure of Embedded Star Clusters

Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier, Alison Sills, William E. Harris +8

We perform simulations of star cluster formation to investigate the morphological evolution of embedded star clusters in the earliest stages of their evolution. We conduct our simu…

Radiation shielding of protoplanetary discs in young star-forming regions

Maite J. C. Wilhelm, Simon Portegies Zwart, Claude Cournoyer-Cloutier +4

Protoplanetary discs spend their lives in the dense environment of a star forming region. While there, they can be affected by nearby stars through external photoevaporation and dy…

Using Molecular Gas Observations to Guide Initial Conditions for Star Cluster Simulations

Alison Sills, Steven Rieder, Anne S. M. Buckner +3

The earliest evolution of star clusters involves a phase of co-existence of both newly-formed stars, and the gas from which they are forming. Observations of the gas in such region…

Early-Forming Massive Stars Suppress Star Formation and Hierarchical Cluster Assembly

Sean C. Lewis, Stephen L. W. McMillan, Mordecai-Mark Mac Low +8

Feedback from massive stars plays an important role in the formation of star clusters. Whether a very massive star is born early or late in the cluster formation timeline has profo…

Bright X-ray Pulsars: how outflows influence beaming, pulsations and pulse phase lags

Alexander A. Mushtukov, Simon Portegies Zwart

Extreme accretion in X-ray pulsars (XRPs) results in radiation-driven outflows launched from the inner parts of the accretion disc. The outflows affect the apparent luminosity of t…
