In recent years, theoretical models of dense stellar systems have
become increasingly sophisticated. It is now possible to develop
realistic N-body models with up to many tens of thousands of stars;
the evolution of binaries and single stars in dense environments can
be followed as the cluster evolves as a whole and all of the models
can be tested extensively against the observations.
<p>
On the observational side,the advent of space telescopes and of
ground-based 10-m size telescopes, have provided a huge amount of
data, spanning the range of wavelengths from radio to X-rays. The
development of astrometrical techniques, and the availability of
multifiber high resolution spectrographs allows astrometry and
observational kinematics, with radial velocities and proper motions,
both from the ground and with HST, measured for up to 10,000 stars per
cluster. Large-field imaging cameras now routinely provide photometric
data for up to a few hundred thousands stars per cluster. HST and
interferometric techniques provide a deep view in the very center of
dense stellar systems. A complete inventory of kinematic and
photometric properties, from X-ray to near-infrared, of all luminous
stars from the very center to the outskirts of clusters and nearby
galaxies is now a reality. And an increasing number of catalogs of
kinematic and photometric data are now available on the Web. There is
a significant progress in the determination of geometrical distances
to globular clusters, which will provide a solid foundation for the
calibration of their ages and an important step in the distance
ladder, both with a significant impact in cosmology. And finally,
there has been a great deal of progress in the understanding of
extragalactic globular cluster systems, with a complex variety of
luminosities, masses, ages, metallicities, and dynamical evolution,
and their role in galaxy formation.
<p>
It is now time to directly compare the output of the models with the
observation, and MODEST is the ideal framework to do it. This working
group is intended to collect the most up-to-date observational data,
to help develop observational projects to provide input parameters,
and to test the more and more realistic models developed within
MODEST.

The evolution of dense stellar systems is such a complicated problem
that no exact solutions and few exact constraints are known.
Therefore the reliability of simulations can best be checked by
cross-validation. The aim of this working group is to compare results
from different simulation methods on a small suite of well specified
test problems. The results can be used to check that a new code is

The evolution of dense stellar systems is such a complicated problem
that no exact solutions and few exact constraints are known.
Therefore the reliability of simulations can best be checked by
cross-validation. The aim of this working group is to compare results
from different simulation methods on a small suite of well specified
test problems. The results can be used to check that a new code is
working correctly, or that approximate methods give results consistent
with more elaborate methods.

<a href=http://www.astro.uu.nl/~pols/modest/WG2.html>

</a>
Stars in clusters evolve, and this evolution provides a crucial
feedback on the evolution of the cluster as a whole - through mass
loss, interaction, and collisions between stars. Conversely, the
dynamical cluster environment strongly modifies the evolution of many
of its members, and the often exotic stars that result can be an
important diagnostic of the (hydro)dynamical processes that take
place.
<p> Our challenge is to model the evolution of any star that can be
present in a dense cluster, whether single, binary or a member of a
higher-order multiple. This includes non-canonical stars that result
from stellar mergers and collisions. We thus require a stellar
evolution code that can run autonomously from an arbitrary initial
configuration to the end of a star's nuclear and thermal
evolution. The code should be sufficiently fast so as not grind a
cluster simulation to a halt. Above all, it should be robust and give
a meaningful result under any conceivable circumstance.

</a>
Collisions between stars in dense stellar systems are thought to
produce tell-tale `stellar exotica,' i.e. stars with a peculiar
structure and evolution, like blue stragglers or very massive
stars. They also influence the overall dynamics by changing the
number, masses and orbits of stars. In galactic nuclei, collisional
mass loss contributes to the feeding of massive black holes. Our goals
are to understand and describe stellar collisions through
hydrodynamical simulations and (semi)analytical calculations and to
develop numerical methods to incorporate that knowledge into stellar
dynamical models.
