Scientific paper

We introduce a one-dimensional toy model of globular clusters which is a version of the gravitational sheets system, where mass and energy loss due to the evaporation of stars at the boundaries are taken into account. The system relaxes to a quasi-equilibrium state whose velocity distribution is well fitted by a truncated Gaussian, in agreement with King's suggestion. Moreover, we guess a form of the density profile inspired by Rybicki's isothermal solution, which is in good agreement with numerical data.
