AbstractYoung star clusters are a promising environment for forming binary black holes. Such binaries may form dynamically or via binary star evolution or through the interplay of these two channels. To study these formation pathways, we have performed high precision direct N-body simulations of low-mass (M < 1000 M⊙) young star clusters. The simulations were carried out with the code Nbody6++GPU coupled with the population synthesis code MOBSE. Our results highlight the importance of dynamics to form massive black hole binaries even in low-mass young star clusters.

Using U BV CCD photometry, the stellar content of HII regions and young star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds has been studied: (1) the reddenings have been determined, and ages of OB associations and young star clusters have been measured; (2) the stellar initial mass functions have been determined by using the main-sequence luminosity functions; and (3) U BV CCD surface photometry of nine young star clusters has been obtained and their structural properties investigated.
