Evolution of the Galactic Globular Cluster System
We study the dynamical evolution of disk and halo globular clusters in the Milky Way using a series of Fokker-Planck calculations combined with parametric statistical models. Our sample of 113 clusters with velocity data is predicted to descend from an initial population of 250 clusters, implying more than a factor of two decrease in population size due to evolution. Approximately 200 of these ...
متن کاملOn the Evolution of the Galactic Globular Cluster System
By means of a semi-analytical method allowing us to follow the evolution of individual globular clusters spanning a large set of different initial conditions we address the issue of the origin of some observational properties of the galactic globular cluster system. After a preliminary study of some general properties of the main evolutionary processes by a discussion of the relevant timescales...
متن کاملDynamical Evolution of the Mass Function and Radial Profile of the Galactic Globular Cluster System
Evolution of the mass function (MF) and radial distribution (RD) of the Galactic globular cluster (GC) system is calculated using an advanced and realistic Fokker-Planck (FP) model that considers dynamical friction, disc/bulge shocks, and eccentric cluster orbits. We perform hundreds of FP calculations with different initial cluster conditions, and then search a wide parameter space for the bes...
متن کاملDynamical Friction in dE Globular Cluster Systems
The dynamical friction timescale for globular clusters to sink to the center of a dwarf elliptical galaxy (dE) is significantly less than a Hubble time if the halos have King-model or isothermal profiles and the globular clusters formed with the same radial density profile as the underlying stellar population. We examine the summed radial distribution of the entire globular cluster systems and ...
متن کاملThe galactic globular cluster NGC 1851: its dynamical and evolutionary properties
We have completely mapped the Galactic globular cluster NGC 1851 with large-field, ground-based V I CCD photometry and pre-repair HST /WFPC1 data for the central region. The photometric data set has allowed a V vs. (V − I) colour–magnitude diagram for ∼ 20500 stars to be constructed. From the apparent luminosity of the horizontal branch (HB) we derive a true distance modulus (m−M)0 = 15.44 ± 0....
