Multiple Stellar Populations in Globular Clusters

Nate Bastian, Carmela Lardo

Globular Clusters (GCs) exhibit star-to-star variations in specific elements (e.g., He, C, N, O, Na, Al) that bare the hallmark of high temperature H burning. These abundance varia…

The E-MOSAICS Project: simulating the formation and co-evolution of galaxies and their star cluster populations

Joel Pfeffer, J. M. Diederik Kruijssen, Robert A. Crain +1

We introduce the MOdelling Star cluster population Assembly In Cosmological Simulations within EAGLE (E-MOSAICS) project. E-MOSAICS incorporates models describing the formation, ev…

Interpreting the complex CMDs of the Magellanic Clouds clusters

I. Cabrera-Ziri, S. Martocchia, K. Hollyhead +1

The Magellanic Clouds host a large population of massive (> 10^4 Msun) star clusters with ages ranging from a few Myr to 12 Gyr. In nearly all cases, close inspection of their CMDs…

Nearby Early-Type Galactic Nuclei at High Resolution: Dynamical Black Hole and Nuclear Star Cluster Mass Measurements

Dieu D. Nguyen, Anil C. Seth, Nadine Neumayer +12

We present a detailed study of the nuclear star clusters (NSCs) and massive black holes (BHs) of four of the nearest low-mass early-type galaxies: M32, NGC205, NGC5012, and NGC5206…

The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey

Jorick S. Vink, C. J. Evans, J. Bestenlehner +5

We present a number of notable results from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS), an ESO Large Program during which we obtained multi-epoch medium-resolution optical spectroscopy…

Age as a Major Factor in the Onset of Multiple Populations in Stellar Clusters

S. Martocchia, I. Cabrera-Ziri, C. Lardo +16

It is now well established that globular clusters (GCs) exhibit star-to-star light-element abundance variations (known as multiple stellar populations, MPs). Such chemical anomalie…
