Guidelines |
The centre of our Galaxy hosts stellar populations with unclear histories and complex dynamics, representing one the most spectacular places in our Galaxy.
The PhD project is focused primarily on the stellar dynamics within the Nuclear Star Cluster which is to be studied mostly numerically, using direct N-body modelling, but also by means of simple analytical models where applicable. Confrontation of the obtained results with the most up-to-date observational data provided by various instruments will be an integral part of the work. Similar investigations of other star clusters in the broader Galactic centre region and other related topics are also possible. |
