A Parallel Tree-SPH code for Galaxy Formation
Cesario Lia, Giovanni Carraro
We describe a new implementation of a parallel Tree-SPH code with the aim to simulate Galaxy Formation and Evolution. The code has been parallelized using SHMEM, a Cray proprietary…
A photometric study of the intermediate age open cluster King 5
Giovanni Carraro, Antonella Vallenari
We report on near IR (J and K bands) observations of an region centered on the poorly studied open cluster King 5, for which only optical photometry…
The Age of the Galactic Disk
Giovanni Carraro
I review different methods devised to derive the age of the Galactic Disk, namely the Radio-active Decay (RD), the Cool White Dwarf Luminosity Function (CWDLF), old opne clusters (…
Near-infrared photometry of the intermediate age open clusters IC 166 and NGC 7789
Antonella Vallenari, Giovanni Carraro, Andrea Richichi
We present and discuss new photometric data obtained with an IR camera in the J and K pass-bands for the intermediate age open clusters IC 166 (936 stars in total) and NGC 7789 (10…
Galaxy Formation and Evolution. II. Energy Balance, Star Formation and Feed-back
Fulvio Buonomo, Giovanni Carraro, Cesare Chiosi +1
In this paper we present a critical discussion of the algorithms commonly used in N-body simulations of Galaxy Formation to deal with the energy equation governing heating and cool…
Parallel TreeSPH: A Tool for Galaxy Formation
Cesario Lia, Giovanni Carraro
We describe a new implementation of a parallel Tree-SPH code with the aim to simulate Galaxy Formation and Evolution. The code has been parallelized using SHMEM, a Cray proprietary…
