Black Holes in Massive Star Clusters
Steve McMillan, Holger Baumgardt, Simon Portegies Zwart +2
Close encounters and physical collisions between stars in young dense clusters can result in new channels for stellar evolution, and may lead to the formation of very massive stars…
MODEST: modeling stellar evolution and (hydro)dynamics
Piet Hut
Simulations of dense stellar systems currently face two major hurdles, one astrophysical and one computational. The astrophysical problem lies in the fact that several major stages…
Kuiper-belt Binary Formation through Exchange Reactions
Yoko Funato, Junichiro Makino, Piet Hut +2
Recent observations (Burnes et al 2002,Veillet et al 2002, Margot et al 2002a) have revealed an unexpectedly high binary fraction among the Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) that popu…
The Starlab Environment for Dense Stellar Systems
Piet Hut
Traditionally, a simulation of a dense stellar system required choosing an initial model, running an integrator, and analyzing the output. Almost all of the effort went into writin…
Theory in a Virtual Observatory
Peter Teuben, Dave DeYoung, Piet Hut +5
During the last couple of years, observers have started to make plans for a Virtual Observatory, as a federation of existing data bases, connected through levels of software that e…
Panel Discussion on Observing Simulations and Simulating Observations
Piet Hut, Adrienne Cool, Charles Bailyn +3
N-body simulations of star cluster evolution have reached a high degree of realism, by incorporating more and more elements of stellar dynamics, stellar evolution, and hydrodynamic…
