Indication of Mass Segregation in LMC Star Clusters

2012 
In this contribution we present our investigation on mass segregation in selected LMC star clusters. As a diagnostic of mass segregation we use: (1) Colour-magnitude diagrams at various distance from each cluster centre; (2) Radial-density profiles at various magnitude ranges; and (3) comparison with dynamical models which provide core-radius, a measure of a cluster’s compactness.
