Introduction

Motivation: Cooling winds→ multiple populations

young massive clusters have windsstellar winds, SNe→ collisions→ hot shocked wind→ outflow

the wind may become thermally unstable inside the clusterif the cluster is massive and compact enough

dense warm/cold clumps are formeddepends whether they can self-shield against ionising stellar radiation

new stars form either in-situ or after clumps sink into the centre2nd generation (2G) stars enriched by products of massive stars chemical evolution

similarities with FRMS scenario (desressin+07)

- even fast winds can be captured

predicts formation of 2G stars in the centre (may help with mass budget problem)

Catastrophic cooling of the windfor massive clusters, cooling has to betaken into accountradiative solution by silich+03→ T drops at a certain radiuspredicts different observed X-ray flux(silich+04) - good agreement withobserved X-ray fluxes(NGC4303 nuclear SSC; jiménez-bailón+03)

Bimodal regime

Heating efficiency and mass loading

hot gas inside cluster seems to be colder than energy / massdeposited by stars→ two new parameters:

ηML: mass loading - additional (pristine) gas added to the hot phaseηHE: heating efficiency - some thermal energy is lost from the hotphase (on the top of standard cooling)

mass loading - evidence for mixing with pristine gas ∼ 1 : 1(e.g. prantzos+07)

obs. evidence for low heating efficiencymissing energy from X-ray luminosities(rosen+14)recombination line profiles of SSCs inAntennae have moderately supersonicwidths (gilbert&graham07)

Summary & conclusions

Summary

wind cooling leading to bimodal regime is inevitable for high andcompact enough clusterdense gas formed by thermal instability stays in the cluster andself-shields against ionising radiation→ secondary SFheating efficiency⇒ compact/extended 2G

low heating efficiency→ SF in the central clump: 2G concentratedin the cluster centre;high heating efficiency→ SF in streams: 2G dispersed throughoutthe cluster

much more difficult to capture SN ejecta; rapidly removeremaining accumulated gas
