The Rich Are Different: Evidence from the RAVE Survey for Stellar Radial Migration

G. Kordopatis, J. Binney, G. Gilmore +21

Using the RAdial Velocity Experiment fourth data release (RAVE DR4), and a new metallicity calibration that will be also taken into account in the future RAVE DR5, we investigate t…

Characterizing the High-Velocity Stars of RAVE: The Discovery of a Metal-Rich Halo Star Born in the Galactic Disk

K. Hawkins, G. Kordopatis, G. Gilmore +21

We aim to characterize high-velocity (HiVel) stars in the solar vicinity both chemically and kinematically using the fourth data release of the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE). W…

The formation of stellar nuclear discs in bar-induced gas inflows

David R. Cole, Victor P. Debattista, Peter Erwin +2

The role of gas in the mass assembly at the nuclei of galaxies is still subject to some uncertainty. Stellar nuclear discs bridge the gap between the large-scale galaxy and the cen…

Secular- and merger-built bulges in barred galaxies

J. Mendez-Abreu, Victor P. Debattista, E. M. Corsini +1

(Abridged) We study the incidence, as well as the nature, of composite bulges in a sample of 10 face-on barred galaxies to constrain the formation and evolutionary processes of the…
