GC III

Goals/projects for GC III workshop

A. Method comparison (now Challenge #4):

Jeans modelling vs. Distribution-function based models for fitting mock data of GCs. We will start with $N$-body snapshots of the M4 models by Heggie (2014): http://datashare.is.ed.ac.uk/handle/10283/618

B. Understanding Gaia errors:

What will Gaia actually give us (for GCs, open clusters, runaway stars, hypervelocity stars)? What can we do with TGAS?

C. Potential escapers:

a) quantify biases from ignoring them

b) towards self-consistent mixture models with potential escapers

D. Rotation:

include prescription for rotation in multi-mass DF models.
