Ram pressure drag - the effects of ram pressure on dark matter and stellar disk dynamics

R. Smith, M. Fellhauer, P. Assmann

We investigate the effects of ram pressure stripping on gas-rich disk galaxies in the cluster environment. Ram pressure stripping principally effects the atomic gas in disk galaxie…

Formation rates of star clusters in the hierarchical merging scenario

R. Smith, R. Slater, M. Fellhauer +2

Stars form with a complex and highly structured distribution. For a smooth star cluster to form from these initial conditions, the star cluster must erase this substructure. We stu…

Popping star clusters as building blocks of the Milky Way Thick Disc

P. Assmann, M. Fellhauer, P. Kroupa +2

It is widely believed that star clusters form with low star formation efficiencies. With the onset of stellar winds by massive stars or finally when the first super nova blows off,…

A parametric study on the formation of extended star clusters and ultra-compact dwarf galaxies

R. C. Bruens, P. Kroupa, M. Fellhauer +2

In the last decade, extended stellar clusters with masses in the range from a few 10^4 to 10^8 M_sun have been found in various types of galaxies in different environments. Objects…

Surviving infant mortality in the hierarchical merging scenario

Rory Smith, Michael Fellhauer, Simon Goodwin +1

We examine the effects of gas expulsion on initially sub-structured and out-of-equilibrium star clusters. We perform -body simulations of the evolution of star clusters in a sta…

Star Cluster collisions - a formation scenario for the Extended Globular Cluster Scl-dE1 GC1

Paulina Assmann, Mark I. Wilkinson, Michael Fellhauer +1

Recent observations of the dwarf elliptical galaxy Scl-dE1 (Sc22) in the Sculptor group of galaxies revealed an extended globular cluster (Scl-dE1 GC1), which exhibits an extremely…
