The dynamical fingerprint of gas-expulsion: Insights into the assembly of the Milky Ways’ old GC system
Since the oldest globular clusters (GCs) are early residuals from the formation of the Milky Way (MW), GCs were exposed to the likely evolving potential of our Galaxy. The expulsion of the residual-gas from the GC’s embedded progenitors is sensitive to the conditions in the pre-MW gas cloud. By mean...
