Abstract
AbstractThe Orion Nebula Cluster (ONC) is one of the nearest open clusters, which we can directly compare to numerical simulations. We performed a simulation of star cluster formation similar to the ONC using our new N-body/smoothed particle hydrodynamics code, ASURA+BRIDGE. We found that the hierarchical formation of star clusters via clump mergers can explain the observed three peaks in the stellar age distribution as well as the dynamically anisotropic structures of the ONC.
