- Title
Can Nuclear Star Clusters Help Trace Galactic Evolution?
- Authors
Negus, James
- Abstract
The article explores how can the Nuclear Star Clusters help trace Galactic Evolution. Topics discussed include dense and spherical clusters of older generation stars that are strongly bound by gravity and orbit the center of a galaxy's halo; despite the immense average distance between the stars, gravity finds a way; and tremendous gravitational forces near the center of a galaxy, in particular, can form breathtaking structures known as stellar clusters.
