Monte Carlo Simulations of Globular Cluster Evolution. V. Binary Stellar Evolution
摘要:
我们研究了包含原始双星的球状星团的动力学演化,包括完整的单和二进制恒星演化使用我们的Monte Carlo集群演化代码更新与适应的单和二进制恒星演化代码SSE/BSE从Hurley等。al(2000,2002).我们描述了我们对代码所做的修改。我们提出了几个测试计算和与现有研究的比较,以说明代码的有效性。我们发现,我们的代码发现非常好的协议与直接N体模拟,包括原始双星和恒星演化。我们发现显着的差异,使用恒星演化的模拟集群的全球性质的演变相比,没有任何恒星演化的模拟。特别是,我们发现,从恒星演化的质量损失作为一个重要的能量生产渠道,简单地通过减少总的引力结合能,可以显着延长初始核心收缩阶段之前,达到双星燃烧准稳态的集群演化注意到在文件IV。我们模拟了一个大的网格的集群不同的初始集群质量,二进制分数,和浓度,并比较模拟集群的性质与观察到的银河系球状星团(GGC)。我们发现我们模拟的团簇性质与观测到的GGC性质吻合得很好。我们探索在一些细节定性不同的集群在不同阶段的演变,并构建合成的Hertzprung-Russell图这些集群。
英文摘要:
We study the dynamical evolution of globular clusters containing primordial binaries, including full single and binary stellar evolution using our Monte Carlo cluster evolution code updated with an adaptation of the single and binary stellar evolution codes SSE/BSE from Hurley et. al (2000, 2002). We describe the modifications we have made to the code. We present several test calculations and comparisons with existing studies to illustrate the validity of the code. We show that our code finds very good agreement with direct N-body simulations including primordial binaries and stellar evolution. We find significant differences in the evolution of the global properties of the simulated clusters using stellar evolution compared to simulations without any stellar evolution. In particular, we find that the mass loss from stellar evolution acts as a significant energy production channel simply by reducing the total gravitational binding energy and can significantly prolong the initial core contraction phase before reaching the binary-burning quasi steady state of the cluster evolution as noticed in Paper IV. We simulate a large grid of clusters varying the initial cluster mass, binary fraction, and concentration and compare properties of the simulated clusters with those of the observed Galactic globular clusters (GGCs). We find that our simulated cluster properties agree well with the observed GGC properties. We explore in some detail qualitatively different clusters in different phases of their evolution, and construct synthetic Hertzprung-Russell diagrams for these clusters.
