We report the results of a large set N-body calculations aimed at studying evolution multimass star clusters in external tidal fields. Our start with same initial mass functions, but varying particle numbers, orbital types and density profiles. main focus is to study how stellar function other cluster parameters change under combined influence evolution, two-body relaxation field. find that lifetimes moving on similar orbits scale as T∼Txrh, where Trh time, exponent x depends concentration...
The evolution of star clusters is studied using N-body simulations in which the single stars and binaries taken self-consistently into account. Initial conditions are chosen to represent relatively young Galactic open clusters, such as Pleiades, Praesepe Hyades. calculations include a realistic mass function, primordial external potential parent Galaxy.
We know from observations that globular clusters are very efficient catalysts in forming unusual short-period binary systems or their offspring, such as low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs; neutron stars accreting matter stellar companions), cataclysmic variables (white dwarfs and millisecond pulsars (rotating with spin periods of a few milliseconds). Although there has been little direct evidence, the overabundance these objects attributed by numerous authors to high densities cores, which leads...

Observations of stellar kinematics, gasdynamics, and masers around galactic nuclei have now firmly established that many galaxies host central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) with masses in the range ~106-109 M☉. However, how these SMBHs formed is not well understood. One reason for this situation lack observations intermediate-mass BHs (IMBHs), which could bridge gap between mass SMBHs. Recently, missing link (i.e., an IMBH) has been found made by ASCA Chandra region starburst galaxy M82....
We show that the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method, used with individual time-steps in way described literature, cannot handle strong explosion problems correctly. In time-step scheme, particles determine their essentially from a local Courant condition. Thus they respond to shock, if pre-shock timescale is too long compared shock timescale. This problem not severe SPH simulations of galaxy formation temperature cutoff cooling function at $10^4 {\rm K}$, while it very dangerous...
It has been believed that spirals in pure stellar disks, especially the ones spontaneously formed, decay several galactic rotations due to increase of velocity dispersions. Therefore, some cooling mechanism, for example dissipational effects interstellar medium, was assumed be necessary keep spiral arms. Here we show disks can maintain features tens without help cooling, using a series high-resolution three-dimensional $N$-body simulations disks. We found if number particles is sufficiently...
Occult nodal metastases increase the risk of cancer recurrence, demoting prognosis and quality life patients. While targeted drug delivery by using systemically administered nanocarriers can potentially control metastatic disease, lymph node have been mainly dealt locally injecting nanocarriers, which may not always be applicable. Herein, we demonstrated that sub-50 nm polymeric micelles incorporating platinum anticancer drugs could target in a syngeneic melanoma model after systemic...
The standard formulation of the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) assumes that local density distribution is differentiable. This assumption used to derive spatial derivatives other quantities. However, this breaks down at contact discontinuity. At discontinuity, low-density side overestimated while high-density underestimated. As a result, pressure (high-density) (underestimated). Thus, unphysical repulsive force appears resulting in effective surface tension. tension suppresses fluid...
Abstract We present the basic idea, implementation, measured performance, and performance model of FDPS (Framework for Developing Particle Simulators). is an application-development framework which helps researchers to develop simulation programs using particle methods large-scale distributed-memory parallel supercomputers. A particle-based program computers needs perform domain decomposition, exchange particles are not in each computing node, gathering information other nodes necessary...
The numerical simulations of massive collisional stellar systems, such as globular clusters (GCs), are very time-consuming. Until now, only a few realistic million-body GCs with small fraction binaries (5%) have been performed by using the NBODY6++GPU code. Such models took half year computational time on GPU based super-computer. In this work, we develop new N-body code, PeTar, combining methods Barnes-Hut tree, Hermite integrator and slow-down algorithmic regularization (SDAR). code can...
Abstract M87 is the best target for studying black hole accretion and jet formation. Reanalysis of Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) public data at 230 GHz shows a core–knots structure center features. We here compare this with new results GMVA 86 showing spatially resolved central core. There are similarities differences between two. At GHz, “two bright regions” seen on ring in The “core–knot–west knot” triple image apparent appearance two peaks similar to when convolved beam. This similarity...
Observed cusps with density profiles ρ ∝ r-1 or shallower in the central regions of galaxies cannot be reproduced standard cold dark matter picture hierarchical clustering. Previous claims to contrary were based on simulations relatively few particles and substantial softening. We present particle numbers 1 order magnitude higher essentially no softening, we show that typical are clearly steeper than r-1. The observed may have formed through smoothing effect spiral-in black holes previous...

In this paper, we describe the architecture and performance of GRAPE-4 system, a massively parallel special-purpose computer for N-body simulation gravitational collisional systems. The calculation cost self-gravitating system is O(N3). Thus, even with present-day supercomputers, number particles one can handle still around 10,000. simulations, almost all computing time spent calculating force between particles, since interactions proportional to square particles.

We performed three-dimensional $N$-body/SPH simulations to study how mass resolution and other model parameters, such as the star-formation efficiency parameter, $C_*$ threshold density for star formation, $n_{\rm th}$ affect structures of galactic gaseous/stellar disk. employed $10^6$–$10^7$ particles resolve a cold ($T \lt$ 100 K) dense ($n_{\rm H} \gt$ cm$^{-3}$) phase well diffuse, hot phases. found that interstellar medium (ISM) distribution young stars were sensitive assumed values...
