Spatial mixing of binary stars in multiple-population globular clusters
Jongsuk Hong, Saahil Patel, Enrico Vesperini +2
We present the results of a study aimed at investigating the effects of dynamical evolution on the spatial distribution and mixing of primordial binary stars in multiple-population…
A systematic analysis of star cluster disruption by tidal shocks -- I. Controlled N-body simulations and a new theoretical model
Jeremy J. Webb, Marta Reina-Campos, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen
Understanding the evolution of stellar clusters in an evolving tidal field is critical for studying the disruption of stellar clusters in a cosmological context. We systematically…
Searching for the GD-1 Stream Progenitor in Gaia DR2 with Direct N-body Simulations
Jeremy J. Webb, Jo Bovy
We perform a large suite of direct N-body simulations aimed at revealing the location of the progenitor, or its remnant, of the GD-1 stream. Data from \gaia\ DR2 reveals the GD-1 s…
The Effect of Stellar Helium Abundance on Dynamics of Multiple Populations in Globular Clusters
Amy Fare, Jeremy Webb, Alison Sills
We incorporate a semi-analytic formula for the main sequence lifetime of helium-rich stars in N-body simulations of multiple population globular clusters to investigate how the enr…
Rediscovering the Tidal Tails of NGC 288 with Gaia DR2
Shaziana Kaderali, Jason A. S. Hunt, Jeremy J. Webb +2
NGC 288 is a Galactic globular cluster having observed extra tidal structure, without confirmed tidal tails. DR2 provides photometric and astrometric data for many of the st…
The Structural and Kinematic Evolution of Central Star Clusters in Dwarf Galaxies and Their Dependence on Dark Matter Halo Profiles
Jeremy J. Webb, Enrico Vesperini
Through a suite of direct N-body simulations, we explore how the structural and kinematic evolution of a star cluster located at the center of a dwarf galaxy is affected by the sha…
