The origin of the first neutron star -- neutron star merger
K. Belczynski, A. Askar, M. Arca-Sedda +8
The first neutron star-neutron star (NS-NS) merger was discovered on August 17, 2017 through gravitational waves (GW170817) and followed with electromagnetic observations. This mer…
The dynamical origin of multiple populations in intermediate-age clusters in the Magellanic Clouds
Jongsuk Hong, Richard de Grijs, Abbas Askar +7
Numerical simulations were carried out to study the origin of multiple stellar populations in the intermediate-age clusters NGC 411 and NGC 1806 in the Magellanic Clouds. We perfor…
On the initial binary population for star cluster simulations
Diogo Belloni, Abbas Askar, Mirek Giersz +2
Colour-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) are powerful tools that might be used to infer stellar properties in globular clusters (GCs), for example, the binary fraction and their mass ratio…
MOCCA-SURVEY database I. Accreting white dwarf binary systems in globular clusters -- III. Cataclysmic variables -- Implications of model assumptions
Diogo Belloni, Mónica Zorotovic, Matthias R. Schreiber +3
In this third of a series of papers related to cataclysmic variables (CVs) and related objects, we analyse the population of CVs in a set of 12 globular cluster models evolved with…
COCOA Code for Creating Mock Observations of Star Cluster Models
Abbas Askar, Mirek Giersz, Wojciech Pych +1
We introduce and present results from the COCOA (Cluster simulatiOn Comparison with ObservAtions) code that has been developed to create idealized mock photometric observations usi…
Prospects for detection of intermediate-mass black holes in globular clusters using integrated-light spectroscopy
Ruggero de Vita, Michele Trenti, Paolo Bianchini +3
The detection of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) in Galactic globular clusters (GCs) has so far been controversial. In order to characterize the effectiveness of integrated-l…
