N-body Models of Rotating Globular Clusters
We have studied the dynamical evolution of rotating globular clusters with direct N -body models. Our initial models are rotating King models; we obtained results for both equal-mass systems and systems composed out of two mass components. Previous investigations using a Fokker-Planck solver have revealed that rotation has a noticeable influence on stellar systems like globular clusters, which ...
متن کاملTesting lowered isothermal models with direct N-body simulations of globular clusters
Several self-consistent models have been proposed, aiming at describing the phase-space distribution of stars in globular clusters. This study explores the ability of the recently proposed LIMEPY models to reproduce the dynamical properties of direct N-body models of a cluster in a tidal field, during its entire evolution. These dynamical models include prescriptions for the truncation and the ...
متن کاملCNO enrichment by rotating AGB stars in globular clusters
Context. AGB stars have long been held responsible for the important star-to-star variations in light elements observed in Galactic globular clusters. Aims. We analyse the main impacts of a first generation of rotating intermediate-mass stars on the chemical properties of secondgeneration globular cluster stars. The rotating models were computed without magnetic fields and without the effects o...
متن کاملN-body simulations of globular cluster tides
We present N-body simulations of globular clusters, in orbits around the Galaxy, in order to study quantitatively and geometrically the tidal effects they encounter. The clusters are modelised with multi-mass KingMichie models (Michie 1963), including mass segregation at initial conditions. The Galaxy is modelled as realistic as possible, with three components: bulge, disk and dark halo. The ma...
متن کاملThree-Body Encounters of Black Holes in Globular Clusters
Evidence has been mounting for the existence of black holes with masses from 102 to 104 M⊙ associated with stellar clusters. Such intermediate-mass black holes (IMBHs) will encounter other black holes in the dense cores of these clusters. The binaries produced in these interactions will be perturbed by other objects as well thus changing the orbital characteristics of the binaries. These binari...
