Extremely massive stars forged oldest star clusters in the universe, model suggests
An international team led by ICREA researcher Mark Gieles, from the Institute of Cosmos Sciences of the University of Barcelona (ICCUB) and the Institute of Space Studies of Catalonia (IEEC), has developed a model that reveals how extremely massive stars (EMS)—with more than 1,000 times the mass of the sun—have governed the birth and early evolution of the oldest star clusters in the universe.
