Phase space diagram for an N = 1000 star cluster simulation at t = 10 Myr. The bound and unbound members are shown in blue and red colours respectively. Vertical and horizontal red lines indicate distance and velocity cutoffs respectively for unbound stars. The light blue line represents the analytical escape velocity dependence on distance from the cluster centre derived assuming a Plummer distribution for the members. The black crosses show the stars that underwent a strong encounter.
