Graduate student Alex Livernois along with collaborators Enrico Vesperini and past graduate student Maria Tiongco have published Early dynamics and violent relaxation of multimass rotating star clusters, in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Their study is aimed at exploring, by means of N-body simulations, the evolution of rotating multimass star clusters during the violent relaxation phase, in the presence of a weak external tidal field. Nicely done Alex!
