Planetary systems in star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2014
AbstractIn the solar neighborhood, where the typical relaxation timescale is larger than the cosmic age, at least 10% to 15% of Sun-like stars have planetary systems with Jupiter-mass planets. In contrast, dense star clusters, characterized by frequent close encounters, have been found to host very few planets.

Kernel Density Estimation in the Study of Star Clusters

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2016
The kernel estimator method is used to evaluate the surface and spatial star number density in star clusters. Both density maps and radial density profiles are plotted.

Membership Analysis and 3D Kinematics of the Star-forming Complex around Trumpler 37 Using Gaia-DR3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Identifying and characterizing young populations of star-forming regions are crucial to unraveling their properties. In this regard, Gaia-DR3 data and machine-learning tools are very useful for studying large star-forming complexes.

HOW FAR CAN GET FRB PROGENITOR NEUTRON STARS FROM THEIR BIRTHPLACE?

open access: yesВестник. Серия физическая, 2021
The recent studies show evidence of magnetars – young neutron stars being good candidates of fast radio birth sources. Neutron stars can form as remnants of type II supernovae explosions of young stars.

The role of the central stellar cluster in active galactic nuclei. I. Semi-analytical model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The subject of the paper is the role of the massive stellar cluster in the activity phenomenon and in the structure of active galactic nuclei. We introduce a simple model of stellar dynamics in the internal part of the cluster, which allows us to include

Does God play dice with star clusters?

open access: yesThe Open Journal of Astrophysics, 2023
When a detailed model of a stellar population is unavailable, it is most common to assume that stellar masses are independently and identically distributed according to some distribution: the universal initial mass function (IMF). However, stellar masses

Star cluster formation in Orion A [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2020
Abstract We introduce new analysis methods for studying the star cluster formation processes in Orion A, especially examining the scenario of a cloud–cloud collision. We utilize the CARMA–NRO Orion survey 13CO (1–0) data to compare molecular gas to the properties of young stellar objects from the SDSS III IN-SYNC survey. We show that the

STROMGREN PHOTOMETRY AND SEARCH FOR SHORT PERIOD VARIABLES IN THE OPEN CLUSTERS NGC 6910 AND NGC 6913

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2017
Analysis of the absolute uvby photometry of the Open Clusters NGC 6910 and NGC 6913 show well-defined peaks that clearly define the accumulation of stars. Differential photometry of five stars in the direction of each cluster determines that at least two

Early Results from GLASS-JWST. XX. Unveiling a Population of “Red Excess” Galaxies in Abell2744 and in the Coeval Field

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We combine JWST/NIRCam imaging and MUSE data to characterize the properties of galaxies in different environmental conditions in the cluster Abell2744 ( z = 0.3064) and in its immediate surroundings. We investigate how galaxy colors, morphology, and star-

Star Cluster Survival in Star Cluster Complexes under Extreme Residual Gas Expulsion

open access: yes, 2005
After the stars of a new, embedded star cluster have formed they blow the remaining gas out of the cluster. Especially winds of massive stars and definitely the on-set of the first supernovae can remove the residual gas from a cluster.
