Evolution of Extremely Soft Binaries in Dense Star Clusters: On the Jupiter Mass Binary Objects

Star-forming regions, characterized by dense environments, experience frequent encounters that significantly influence binary systems, leading to their hardening, softening, or ionization. We extend the Hut and Bahcall formalism to derive an analytical expression for the ionization cross section in...
