Dynamical evolution plays a key role in shaping the current properties of star clusters and star cluster systems. A detailed understanding of the effects of evolutionary processes is essential to be able to disentangle the properties which result from ...

Star cluster ecology IVa: Dissection of an open star cluster---photometry [PDF]
The evolution of star clusters is studied using N-body simulations in which the evolution of single stars and binaries are taken self-consistently into account.

AbstractWe review the current knowledge about nuclear star clusters (NSCs), the spectacularly dense and massive assemblies of stars found at the centers of most galaxies. Recent observational and theoretical works suggest that many NSC properties, including their masses, densities, and stellar populations, vary with the properties of their host ...

NUCLEAR STAR CLUSTERS FROM CLUSTERED STAR FORMATION [PDF]
11 pages, 12 figures, revised version corrects a numerical error that lead to a moderate overestimate of NSC masses; conclusions remain ...

A Study of Be Stars in Clusters [PDF]
Calibrated spectrograms at Hα of 566 stars in 29 young galactic clusters led to the detection of 41 Be stars in clusters. Using cluster membership we have inferred ages and intrinsic (B – V) colors of Be stars to permit a discussion of their evolutionary states.Rotating stars can become Be stars in their early hydrogen burning evolution away from the ...

Bruck 88 : a young star cluster with an old age resemblance in the outskirts of the Small Magellanic Cloud [PDF]
We present spectroscopic and photometric results for the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) cluster Bruck 88. From the comparison of the cluster integrated spectrum with template cluster spectra we found that the Milky Way globular cluster template spectra are

Orbital Decay and Tidal Disruption of a Star Cluster: Analytical Calculation [PDF]
The orbital decay and tidal disruption of a star cluster in a galaxy is studied in an analytical manner. Owing to dynamical friction, the star cluster spirals in toward the center of the galaxy.

Cluster formation versus star formation rates around six regions in the LMC [PDF]
The stellar population and star clusters around six regions in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) are studied to understand the correlation between star formation and cluster formation rates.

Early dynamical evolution of star cluster systems [PDF]
Violent relaxation -- the protocluster dynamical response to the expulsion of its residual star forming gas -- is a short albeit crucial episode in the evolution of star clusters and star cluster systems. Because it is heavily driven by cluster formation
