Multiband gravitational wave observations of eccentric escaping binary black holes from globular clusters

Yuetong Zhao, Abbas Askar, Youjun Lu +7

Stellar-mass binary black holes (sBBHs) formed in globular clusters (GCs) are promising sources for multiband gravitational wave (GW) observations, particularly with low- and middl…

Dynamical evolution of massless particles in star clusters with NBODY6++GPU-MASSLESS: II. The long-term evolution of free-floating comets

Francesco Flammini Dotti, M. B. N. Kouwenhoven, Kai Wu +5

Context. Comets, asteroids, planetesimals, free-floating planets and brown dwarfs, are continuously injected into the intra-cluster environment after expulsion from their host plan…

Simulations of Globular Cluster Evolution with Multiple Stellar Populations

Mirek Giersz, Abbas Askar, Arkadiusz Hypki +3

The formation of stars with light-element abundance variations in globular clusters and the subsequent dynamical evolution of these multiple populations remains an open question. O…

Formation and growth of intermediate-mass black holes in dense star clusters: Lessons from N-body and MOCCA Monte Carlo Simulations

Abbas Askar, Marcelo C. Vergara, Sohaib Ali

Dense star clusters are promising nurseries for the formation and growth of intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs; ), with increasing observation…

Self-lensing binaries in globular clusters -- predictions for ELT

Grzegorz Wiktorowicz, Matthew Middleton, Mirek Giersz +4

Self-lensing (SL) represents a powerful technique for detecting compact objects in binary systems through gravitational microlensing effects, when a compact companion transits in f…

Evolution of star clusters with initial bulk rotation via N-body simulations

Abylay Bissekenov, Xiaoying Pang, Albrecht Kamlah +6

Young star clusters can inherit bulk rotation from the molecular clouds from which they have formed. This rotation can affect the long-term evolution of a star cluster and its cons…
