How did globular clusters lose their gas?

TL;DR

This paper reviews mechanisms like supernova-driven shells and dark remnant accretion that influence how globular clusters lose their gas during early development stages.

Contribution

It synthesizes previous findings on gas expulsion processes in globular clusters, highlighting the roles of supernovae and dark remnants.

Findings

Supernova-driven shells contribute significantly to gas expulsion.

Dark remnant accretion impacts gas retention in clusters.

Multiple mechanisms work together to clear gas from globular clusters.

Abstract

We summarize the results presented in Krause et al. (2012) on the impact of supernova-driven shells and dark-remnant accretion on gas expulsion in globular cluster infancy.
