N-body models of NGC 3532 produce only 0-8 stellar mergers, too few to explain the cluster's ~37% blue main-sequence population, disfavoring the merger origin for its slow rotators.

Examining the stellar-merger origin of the blue main sequence in the open cluster NGC\,3532 with N-body simulations
N-body models of NGC 3532 produce only 0-8 stellar mergers, too few to explain the cluster's ~37% blue main-sequence population, disfavoring the merger origin for its slow rotators.
