Dense Stellar Populations: Initial Conditions
This chapter is based on four lectures given at the Cambridge N-body school
"Cambody". The material covered includes the IMF, the 6D structure of dense
clusters, residual gas expulsion and the initial binary population. It is aimed
at those needing to initialise stellar populations for a variety of purposes
(N-body experiments, stellar population synthesis).Comment: 85 pages. To appear in The Cambridge N-body Lectures, Sverre Aarseth,
