Star cluster dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2010
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 that result from dynamical evolution from those imprinted at the time of cluster formation.

Star cluster formation and star formation: the role of environment and star-formation efficiencies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
“The original publication is available at www.springerlink.com”. Copyright Springer. DOI: 10.1007/s10509-009-0088-5By analyzing global starburst properties in various kinds of starburst and post-starburst galaxies and relating them to the properties of ...

Connecting young star clusters to CO molecular gas in NGC 7793 with ALMA–LEGUS [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
We present an investigation of the relationship between giant molecular cloud (GMC) properties and the associated stellar clusters in the nearby flocculent galaxy NGC 7793. We combine the star cluster catalogue from the HST LEGUS (Legacy ExtraGalactic UV

Probing the Faintest Stars in a Globular Star Cluster [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2006
NGC 6397 is the second closest globular star cluster to the Sun. Using 5 days of time on the Hubble Space Telescope, we have constructed an ultradeep color-magnitude diagram for this cluster. We see a clear truncation in each of its two major stellar sequences.

The spatial relation between young star clusters and molecular clouds in M51 with LEGUS [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
We present a study correlating the spatial locations of young star clusters with those of molecular clouds in NGC 5194, in order to investigate the time-scale over which clusters separate from their birth clouds.

Nuclear star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractThe centers of most galaxies in the local Universe are occupied by compact, barely resolved sources. Based on their structural properties, position in the Fundamental Plane, and integrated spectra, these sources clearly have a stellar origin. They are therefore called ‘nuclear star clusters’ (NCs) or ‘stellar nuclei’.

A Multi-band Catalog of 10978 Star Clusters, Associations, and Candidates in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomical Journal, 2018
We present a catalog of Galactic star clusters, associations and candidates with 10978 entries. This multi-band catalog was constructed over 20 years, starting with visual inspections on the Digital Sky Survey and incremented with the 2MASS, WISE, VVV ...

Searching for New Globular Clusters in M31 with Gaia EDR3

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We have found 50 new globular cluster (GC) candidates around M31 with Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3), with the help of Pan-STARRS1 DR1 magnitudes and Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS) images.

Collisions in primordial star clusters [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Collisions were suggested to potentially play a role in the formation of massive stars in present day clusters, and have likely been relevant during the formation of massive stars and intermediate mass black holes within the first star clusters.
