Abstract: | The mass reinserted by young stars in an emerging massive compact cluster shows a bimodal hydrodynamic behaviour. In the inner parts of the cluster, it is thermally unstable, while in its outer parts it forms an outflowing wind. The chemical homogeneity/inhomogeneity of low/high-mass clusters demonstrates the relevance of this solution to the presence of single/multiple stellar populations. We show the consequences which the thermal instability of the reinserted mass has on galactic superwinds and discuss the open issues raised by the bimodal solution of stellar winds of massive clusters. |
