  1. 1. Finding new members of the VelHel-4 stream

    Kandidat-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för teknikvetenskap (SCI)

    Författare :Lucas Johansson; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Galactic Archaeology; Milky Way; Stellar Streams; Streams; Stellar Halo; Stars; Globular Cluster; Astronomy; Astrophysics; Gaia; Chemical Abundance; Spectroscopy;

    Sammanfattning : According to the paradigm of lambda-CDM cosmology, the stellar halo ofour Galaxy has been built-up over time through the accretion of other galaxiesand star clusters. The remnants of some of these are still observable today asstellar streams, but are typically very faint and difficult to resolve amidst the farmore numerous foreground Milky Way stars. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Resolving the smallest scale of star formation at Cosmic Noon with JWST : Star-forming clumps in a galaxy lensed by Abell 2744

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för astronomi

    Författare :Annalena Pless; [2023]
    Nyckelord :star formation; star-forming clumps; galaxy evolution;

    Sammanfattning : At higher redshift galaxies exhibit increasingly irregular and clumpy morphologies, withstar-forming clumps dominating the FUV output of their host galaxies thus being inti-mately related to star formation and the formation and evolution of galaxies. This workexamines star-forming clumps in a remarkable, young spiral galaxy at Cosmic Noon witha redshift ofz= 2. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Hyper-velocity stars from globular clusters hosting intermediate-mass black holes

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astrofysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Författare :Matilda Skantz; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Hypervelocity stars; run-away stars; stellar binary; intermediate mass black hole; globular cluster; Hills mechanism; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : In 1988 Hills proposed that stars can gain velocities above 500 km s−1 if they are in a stellar binary which gets disrupted by a super massive black hole (SMBH). One of the stars would get trapped in an elliptical orbit around the SMBH while the other gets ejected and obtains a relatively high velocity. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Starbursts at Cosmic Dawn : Formation of Globular Clusters, Ultra-Faint Dwarfs, and Population III star clusters at z > 6

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för astronomi

    Författare :Olof Nebrin; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Cosmology; Galaxy Formation; Globular Clusters; First Stars; Dark Matter; Cosmic Dawn; Reionization; Ultra-Faint Dwarfs;

    Sammanfattning : In the standard model of cosmology (ΛCDM) the first stars, star clusters, and galaxies are expected to have formed in short bursts of star formation in low-mass dark matter halos at high redshifts (). Up to this point, attempts to predict the properties and abundances of these luminous objects have made use of numerically expensive cosmological simulations. LÄS MER

  5. 5. On The Run: How Fast Runaway Stars Can Escape From Their Home Cluster?

    Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation

    Författare :Anna-Maria Söderman; [2022]
    Nyckelord :star cluster; runaway stars; velocity distribution; Physics and Astronomy;

    Sammanfattning : Galaxies contain a wide variety of star clusters with different properties. Each cluster is a possible source of runaway stars, which can be progenitors of supernovae in other parts of the galaxy than their home cluster. Considering runaway stars in galaxy simulations has shown to increase the galactic feedback. LÄS MER
