The role of three-body stability in tidally interacting globular clusters
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 March 2016
Abstract
The role of stability in the general three-body problem is investigated with regard to the tidal radius of a globular cluster (GC) in a galactic potential. This proceedings is a summary of two papers which outline the stability method (Kennedy 2014a) and compare the predicted stability boundary radius to observations of velocity dispersion profiles in Milky Way GCs (Kennedy 2014b).
