Phase mixing due to the Galactic potential: steps in the position and velocity distributions of popped star clusters
G. N. Candlish, R. Smith, M. Fellhauer +3
As star clusters are expected to form with low star formation efficiencies, the gas in the cluster is expelled quickly and early in their development: the star cluster "pops." This…
A Possible Formation Scenario for Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies - II: A Parameter Study
P. Assmann, M. Fellhauer, M. I. Wilkinson +2
Dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies are considered the basic building blocks of the galaxy formation process in the LCDM (Lambda Cold Dark Matter) hierarchical cosmological model. The…
A Possible Formation Scenario for Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies I: Fiducial Model
Paulina Assmann, Michael Fellhauer, Mark I. Wilkinson +1
We use numerical simulations to study a formation scenario for dwarf spheroidal galaxies in which their stellar populations are the products of the dissolution of open star cluster…
