The effect of dynamical interactions in stellar birth environments on the orbits of young close-in planetary systems (2024)
Journal Article
Schoettler, C., & E Owen, J. (2024). The effect of dynamical interactions in stellar birth environments on the orbits of young close-in planetary systems. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 533(3), 3484-3500. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae1900

Stars do not form in isolation but together with other stars, and often in a clustered environment. Depending on the initial conditions in these environments, such as initial density and substructure, the distances of encounters between stars will di...

Constraining the initial conditions of NGC 2264 using ejected stars found in Gaia DR2 (2021)
Journal Article
Schoettler, C., Richard J., P., & Bruijne, Jos, D. (2022). Constraining the initial conditions of NGC 2264 using ejected stars found in Gaia DR2. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab3529

Fast, ejected stars have been found around several young star-forming regions, such as the Orion Nebula Cluster. These ejected stars can be used to constrain the initial density, spatial and kinematic substructure when compared to predictions from N-...

Constraints on star formation in NGC 2264 (2021)
Journal Article
Parker, R. J., & Schoettler, C. (2022). Constraints on star formation in NGC 2264. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 510(1), 1136-1147. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stab3460

We quantify the spatial distribution of stars for two subclusters centred around the massive/intermediate-mass stars S Mon and IRS 1/2 in the NGC 2264 star-forming region. We find that both subclusters have neither a substructured nor a centrally con... Read More about Constraints on star formation in NGC 2264.

Double trouble: Gaia reveals (proto)planetary systems that may experience more than one dense star-forming environment (2020)
Journal Article
Schoettler, C., & Parker, R. J. (2021). Double trouble: Gaia reveals (proto)planetary systems that may experience more than one dense star-forming environment. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 501(1), L12-L17. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnrasl/slaa182

Planetary systems appear to form contemporaneously around young stars within young star-forming regions. Within these environments, the chances of survival, as well as the long-term evolution of these systems, are influenced by factors such as dynami...
