Nitrogen-enriched, Highly Pressurized Nebular Clouds Surrounding a Super Star Cluster at Cosmic Noon

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Strong lensing offers a precious opportunity for studying the formation and early evolution of super star clusters that are rare in our cosmic backyard.

The old Nuclear Star Cluster in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We derive new constraints on the mass, rotation, orbit structure and statistical parallax of the Galactic old nuclear star cluster (NSC) and the mass of the supermassive black hole.

High-Mass Star and Massive Cluster Formation in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2017
This review examines the state-of-the-art knowledge of high-mass star and massive cluster formation, gained from ambitious observational surveys, which acknowledges the multiscale characteristics of these processes.

The Transformation of Cluster Galaxies at Intermeidate Redshift

open access: yes, 2004
We combine imaging data from the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) with VLT/FORS optical spectroscopy to study the properties of star-forming galaxies in the z=0.837 cluster CL0152-1357.

The effect of the dynamical state of clusters on gas expulsion and infant mortality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The star formation efficiency (SFE) of a star cluster is thought to be the critical factor in determining if the cluster can survive for a significant (>50 Myr) time.

Lithopanspermia in Star-Forming Clusters [PDF]

open access: yesAstrobiology, 2005
This paper considers the lithopanspermia hypothesis in star forming groups and clusters, where the chances of biological material spreading from one solar system to another is greatly enhanced (relative to the field) due to the close proximity of the systems and lower relative velocities. These effects more than compensate for the reduced time spent in

The immunological interface: dendritic cells as key regulators in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

The Prevalence and Impact of Wolf-Rayet Stars in Emerging Massive Star Clusters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We investigate Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars as a source of feedback contributing to the removal of natal material in the early evolution of massive star clusters. Despite previous work suggesting that massive star clusters clear out their natal material before the massive stars evolve into the WR phase, WR stars have been detected in several emerging massive ...

Surface brightness profile of the Milky Way’s nuclear star cluster [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Context. Although the Milky Way nuclear star cluster (MWNSC) was discovered more than four decades ago, several of its key properties have not been determined unambiguously up to now because of the strong and spatially highly variable interstellar ...

The embedded cluster or association Trumpler 37 in IC1396: a search for evolutionary constraints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
It is currently widely accepted that open star clusters and stellar associations result from the evolution of embedded star clusters. Parameters such star formation efficiency, time-scale of gas removal and velocity dispersion can be determinants of ...
