Monte Carlo Simulations of Globular Cluster Dynamics
نویسنده
چکیده
We have developed a new parallel supercomputer code based on Hénon’s Monte Carlo method for simulating the dynamical evolution of globular clusters. This new code allows us to calculate the evolution of a cluster containing a realistic number of stars (N ∼ 10 − 10) in about a day of computing time. The discrete, star-by-star representation of the cluster in the simulation allows us to treat naturally a number of important processes, including single and binary star evolution, all dynamical interactions of single stars and primordial binaries, and tidal interactions with the Galaxy.

The determination of gyration radius is a strong research for configuration of a Macromolecule. Italso reflects molecular compactness shape. In this work, to characterize the behavior of theprotein, we observe quantities such as the radius of gyration and the average energy. We studiedthe changes of these factors as a function of temperature for Acetylcholine receptor protein in gasphase with n...

Potassium Channels allow potassium flux and are essential for the generation of electric current acrossexcitable membranes. Potassium Channels are also the targets of various intracellular controlmechanisms; such that the suboptimal regulation of channel function might be related to pathologicalconditions. Realistic studies of ion current in biologic channels present a major challenge for compu...

We model the dynamics of test binaries in isotropic, multi-mass models of galactic globular clusters. The evolution of binary orbits through the cluster potentials is modeled, including second order diiusion terms, and probabilities for close encounters with eld stars are calculated. We carry out Monte Carlo simulations of the eeects of the binary{single star encounters on the binary population...
