The Starlab Environment for Dense Stellar Systems
Traditionally, a simulation of a dense stellar system required choosing an initial model, running an integrator, and analyzing the output.

Hot stellar population synthesis from the UV spectrum: the globular cluster M79 (NGC 1904)
We have analyzed the far UV-spectrum of the globular cluster M79. We show that the nearly Gaussian mass distribution of

Modelling the Spectral Signatures of Accretion Disk Winds in Cataclysmic Variables
Bipolar outflows are known to be present in many disk-accreting astrophysical systems. In disk-dominated cataclysmic variables, these outflows are responsible
