年轻星团演化与金属丰度

Young star cluster evolution and metallicity

M. Mapelli, A. Bressan

摘要:

年轻星团是恒星的摇篮,也是重要动力学过程的发生地。我们提出了N体模拟年轻的SC,包括食谱金属依赖的恒星演化和质量损失的恒星风。我们发现,金属丰度影响显着的崩溃和后核心崩溃阶段,提供的核心崩溃的时间尺度是相同的数量级的大质量恒星的寿命。特别是,核心崩溃的逆转是更快的富含金属的SC,那里的恒星风更强。因此,贫金属SC的半质量半径比富金属SC的半质量半径扩大得更多。

英文摘要:

Young star clusters (SCs) are the cradle of stars and the site of important dynamical processes. We present N-body simulations of young SCs including recipes for metal-dependent stellar evolution and mass loss by stellar winds. We show that metallicity affects significantly the collapse and post-core collapse phase, provided that the core collapse timescale is of the same order of magnitude as the lifetime of massive stars. In particular, the reversal of core collapse is faster for metal-rich SCs, where stellar winds are stronger. As a consequence, the half-mass radius of metal-poor SCs expands more than that of metal-rich SCs.
