The Hierarchical Distribution of the Young Stellar Clusters in Six Local Star-forming Galaxies [PDF]
, 2017 We present a study of the hierarchical clustering of the young stellar clusters in six local (3–15 Mpc) star-forming galaxies using Hubble Space Telescope broadband WFC3/UVIS UV and optical images from the Treasury Program LEGUS (Legacy ExtraGalactic UV ...

DEPENDENCY OF DYNAMICAL EJECTIONS OF O STARS ON THE MASSES OF VERY YOUNG STAR CLUSTERS [PDF]
, 2015 Massive stars can be efficiently ejected from their birth star clusters through encounters with other massive stars. We study how the dynamical ejection fraction of O star systems varies with the masses of very young star clusters, M ecl ?> , by means of

THE FORMATION AND DYNAMICAL EVOLUTION OF YOUNG STAR CLUSTERS [PDF]
, 2015 Recent observations have revealed a variety of young star clusters, including embedded systems, young massive clusters, and associations. We study the formation and dynamical evolution of these clusters using a combination of simulations and theoretical ...

The dynamical fate of planetary systems in young star clusters [PDF]
, 2015 We carry out N-body simulations to examine the effects of dynamical interactions on planetary systems in young open star clusters. We explore how the planetary populations in these star clusters evolve, and how this evolution depends on the initial ...

INTERRUPTED STELLAR ENCOUNTERS IN STAR CLUSTERS [PDF]
, 2015 Strong encounters between single stars and binaries play a pivotal role in the evolution of star clusters. Such encounters can also dramatically modify the orbital parameters of binaries, exchange partners in and out of binaries, and are a primary ...

MOCCA code for star cluster simulations – IV. A new scenario for intermediate mass black hole formation in globular clusters [PDF]
, 2015 We discuss a new scenario for the formation of intermediate mass black holes (IMBHs) in dense star clusters. In this scenario, IMBHs are formed as a result of dynamical interactions of hard binaries containing a stellar-mass black hole (BH), with other ...
