Reconstruction of GCIMF from present-day systems via environment-dependent mass-loss inversion yields power-law high-mass ends whose slopes correlate with host halo mass.
N-body simulations find that primordial mass segregation imprints denser, unified tidal tails with bottom-heavy mass functions on star clusters, with effects strongest early and at small R_G but converging later.
Test-particle simulations show that Galactic bar pattern speed systematically deflects open-cluster tidal tail orientations, with NGC 2632 and Hyades tails disfavouring moderate speeds.
Simulations of the Aquila Rift show uneven clumps accreting gas and merging along filaments to form a fractal cluster whose velocity anisotropies, rotation, and expansion record the assembly history even after gas removal.
N-body simulations show that mutual interactions between Terzan 2, 4, and 5 raise mass-loss rates for the smaller clusters and drive prolate deformations absent in isolated runs.
