SHORT ABSTRACT for talk by David Chernoff



We calculate interaction histories for binaries and single
stars in a cluster. We derived (a) the collision frequency for
a range of stellar components, (b) the efficacy of 3-body heating,
(c) the distribution of stellar ejection velocities and (d) the
diffusion of binary eccentricities. Applications to post-collapse
clusters and to galactic nuclei are outlined.
