Post-Collapse evolution of globular clusters
A number of globular clusters appear to have undergone core collapse, in the sense that their predicted collapse time is much shorter than their current age. Simulations using gas models and Fokker-Planck approximation have shown that the central density of a globular cluster after the collapse undergoes nonlinear oscillation with large amplitude (gravothermal oscillation). However, whether suc...

متن کاملEvolution of Globular Clusters Formed in Mergers
Globular clusters formed in galactic mergers (e.g., The Antennae) can now be studied at different stages of their evolution. In young merger remnants (e.g., NGC 7252) these “second-generation” globulars appear by the hundreds as young halo clusters of roughly solar metallicity. While at first bluer and much more luminous than old metal-poor globulars, they become redder after 1 – 1.5 Gyr and ca...
متن کاملEnvelope Expansion with Core Collapse II. Quasi-Spherical Self-Similar Solutions for an Isothermal Magnetofluid
We investigate self-similar magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) processes in an isothermal self-gravitating fluid with a quasi-spherical symmetry and extend the envelope expansion with core collapse (EECC) solutions of Lou & Shen by incorporating a random magnetic field. Magnetized expansion-wave collapse solutions (MEWCS) can be readily constructed as a special case. This inside-out MHD collapse occurs ...
متن کاملThe Chemical Evolution of Helium in Globular Clusters: Implications for the Self-Pollution Scenario
We investigate the suggestion that there are stellar populations in some globular clusters with enhanced helium (Y ∼ 0.28 to 0.40) compared to the primordial value. We assume that a previous generation of massive Asymptotic Giant Branch (AGB) stars have polluted the cluster. Two independent sets of AGB yields are used to follow the evolution of helium and CNO using a Salpeter initial mass funct...
