Star cluster evolution, dynamical age estimation and the kinematical signature of star formation
Star cluster evolution, dynamical age estimation and the kinematical signature of star formation
We distribute 400 model stars in Nbin = 200 binary systems in clusters with initial half-mass radii 0.077 ≤ R0.5≤ 2.53 pc and follow the subsequent evolution of the stellar systems by direct N-body integration. The stellar masses are initially paired at random from the KTG(1.3) initial stellar mass function. …
