Tidal tails around globular clusters. Are they a good tracer of cluster orbits?
M. Montuori, R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, P. Di Matteo +2
We present the results of detailed N-body simulations of clusters moving in a realistic Milky Way (MW) potential. The strong interaction with the bulge and the disk of the Galaxy l…
Merging of globular clusters within inner galactic regions. I. Do they survive the tidal interaction?
P. Miocchi, R. Capuzzo Dolcetta, P. Di Matteo +1
The main topic of this paper is the investigation of the modes of interaction of globular clusters (GCs) moving in the inner part of a galaxy. This is tackled by means of high-reso…
Super computers in astrophysics and High Performance simulations of self-gravitating systems
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, P. Di Matteo, P. Miocchi
The modern study of the dynamics of stellar systems requires the use of high-performance computers. Indeed, an accurate modelization of the structure and evolution of self-gravitat…
