Understanding the Dynamical State of Globular Clusters: Core-Collapsed vs Non Core-Collapsed
Sourav Chatterjee, Stefan Umbreit, John M. Fregeau +1
We study the dynamical evolution of globular clusters using our Hénon-type Monte Carlo code for stellar dynamics including all relevant physics such as two-body relaxation, single…
On the Possibility of Tidal Formation of Binary Planets Around Ordinary Stars
Philipp Podsiadlowski, Saul Rappaport, John M. Fregeau +1
The planet formation process and subsequent planet migration may lead to configurations resulting in strong dynamical interactions among the various planets. Well-studied possible…
Formation of black-hole X-ray binaries in globular clusters
N. Ivanova, S. Chaichenets, J. Fregeau +3
Inspired by the recent identification of the first candidate BH-WD X-ray binaries, where the compact accretors may be stellar-mass black hole candidates in extragalactic globular c…
Monte Carlo Simulations of Globular Cluster Evolution. V. Binary Stellar Evolution
Sourav Chatterjee, John M. Fregeau, Stefan Umbreit +1
We study the dynamical evolution of globular clusters containing primordial binaries, including full single and binary stellar evolution using our Monte Carlo cluster evolution cod…
Monte Carlo Simulations of Globular Cluster Evolution. VI. The Influence of an Intermediate Mass Black Hole
Stefan Umbreit, John M. Fregeau, Sourav Chatterjee +1
We present results of a series of Monte Carlo simulations investigating the imprint of a central intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) on the structure of a globular cluster. We inve…
Evolution of the Binary Fraction in Dense Stellar Systems
J. M. Fregeau, N. Ivanova, F. A. Rasio
Using our recently improved Monte Carlo evolution code, we study the evolution of the binary fraction in globular clusters. In agreement with previous N-body simulations, we find g…
