Particle dynamics modeling is done to study the behavior of granular beds subjected to vibrations imposed by a plane boundary which oscillates sinusoidally about a zero mean speed. Significant differences between the lower and higher shaking acceleration regions are found for the granular temperature and solids fraction depth profiles, which characterize the effectiveness of ...

We have investigated the effect of initial mass segregation on the runaway merging of stars. The evolution of multimass, dense star clusters was followed by means of direct N-body simulations of up to 131,072 stars. All clusters started from King models with dimensionless central potentials of 3.0<=W0<=9.0. Initial mass ...

We use the new minimum spanning tree (MST) method to look for mass segregation in the Taurus association. The method computes the ratio of MST lengths of any chosen subset of objects, including the most massive stars and brown dwarfs, to the MST lengths of random sets of stars and brown dwarfs in the cluster. This mass ...

Although this lab is not an inquiry activity, it is very important in learning about acceleration and mass. It is a deeply held misconception among students that objects of different masses fall at different rates. Simply explaining that this is not true

Sulfate segregation from processing radioactive waste glasses causes an acceleration of the melter refractory corrosion and partitioning of radionuclides in the segregated layer. A sulfate retention (SR)-composition relationship has been established for various simulated high-level and low-activity waste glass compositions in terms of ...

We discuss the observations and theory of star cluster formation to argue that clusters form dynamically cool (subvirial) and with substructure. We then perform an ensemble of simulations of cool, clumpy (fractal) clusters and show that they often dynamically mass segregate on timescales far shorter than expected from simple models. The ...

The main-sequence LFs are derived for three fields at different radial distances from the center of the globular cluster M30. It is found that the LFs become flatter with decreasing radius. The observed radial dependence of the slope of the LF is compared with the predictions of mass segregation from the multi-mass component King ...

The initial condition of massive star formation is still a mystery. Especially, it is a matter of dispute whether massive stars are formed in the center of embedded clusters. In view of the short time-scale of embedded clusters, some people argue that mass segregation in embedded clusters serves as the key evidence that massive stars are formed in the ...

We phrase and solve a problem of particle segregation in a dry flow of two sizes of spheres down an inclined bed in a wide channel. The flow is assumed to be steady and fully-developed, collisions between particles are dissipative, and the sizes and masses of the particles are not too different. We restrict our analysis to dense flows and use an extension ...

A stochastic model has been developed for the hierarchical fragmentation of a molecular cloud. Here, the number of fragments, time between successive fragmentation steps, and mass of a fragment are considered as random variables, and fragment masses are generated using the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm. The resulting mass spectra, ...

Flowing granular materials segregate due to differences in particle size (driven by percolation) and density (driven by buoyancy). For noncircular tumblers the additional interaction between the segregation mechanisms and chaotic advection complicates the physics. Experiments are performed using a bi-disperse mixture of equal volumes of different sizes of ...

Massive black holes (MBHs) with a mass below ~ 107 M&sun; are likely to reside at the centre of dense stellar nuclei shaped by 2-body relaxation, close interactions with the MBH and direct collisions.

We have developed a set of dynamically evolving Fokker-Planck models for the collapsed-core globular star cluster M15, which directly address the issue of whether a central black hole is required to fit Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the stellar spatial distribution and kinematics. As in our previous work reported by Dull et al., we find that a central black hole is not needed. Using ...
