There is considerable empirical evidence on the behaviour of binary stars in computer simulations of isolated star clusters. Even when there are no binaries initially they form quickly if the mass spectrum of the stars is reasonably realistic. These phenomena are discussed by a combination of analytical and numerical techniques.
