AbstractWe systematically study the effects of collisions on the overall dynamical evolution of dense star clusters using Monte Carlo simulations over many relaxation times. We derive many observable properties of these clusters, including their core radii and the radial distribution of collision products. We also study different aspects of collisions in a cluster taking into account the shorter lifetimes of more massive stars, which has not been studied in detail before. Depending on the lifetimes of the significantly more massive collision products, observable properties of the cluster can be modified qualitatively; for example, even without binaries, core collapse can sometimes be avoided simply because of stellar collisions.

Simulations of globular cluster luminosity functions have shown that many of the features observed in actual clusters are probably statistical fluctuations. We suggest one new way of looking at the data which may ultimately lead to some information about the physical parameters of clusters.
