Near and far: a hunt for binary-interaction products

Direct observations of the products of binary interactions are sparse, yet they provide important insights on the outcome of the interaction and the physics at play. Young and intermediate-age star clusters are the ideal tool to search for, and characterize such interaction products and allow for a...

Summary:Direct observations of the products of binary interactions are sparse, yet they provide important insights on the outcome of the interaction and the physics at play. Young and intermediate-age star clusters are the ideal tool to search for, and characterize such interaction products and allow for a detailed comparison to theoretical predictions. We here report on integral field spectroscopy obtained with MUSE for several such clusters in the Magellanic Clouds.
