The Dawning of the Stream of Aquarius in RAVE

Mary E. K. Williams, Matthias Steinmetz, Sanjib Sharma +22

We identify a new, nearby (0.5 < d < 10 kpc) stream in data from the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE). As the majority of stars in the stream lie in the constellation of Aquarius…

Local Stellar Kinematics from RAVE Data: I. Local Standard of Rest

B. Coskunoglu, S. Ak, S. Bilir +19

We analyze a sample of 82850 stars from the RAVE survey, with well-determined velocities and stellar parameters, to isolate a sample of 18026 high-probability thin-disc dwarfs with…

Geometric sufficient conditions for compactness of the complex Green operator

Samangi Munasinghe, Emil J. Straube

We establish compactness estimates for on a compact pseudoconvex CR-submanifold of of hypersurface type that satisfies the (analogue of th…

The RAVE Survey: Rich in Very Metal-Poor Stars

Jon P. Fulbright, Rosemary F. G. Wyse, Gregory R. Ruchti +20

Very metal-poor stars are of obvious importance for many problems in chemical evolution, star formation, and galaxy evolution. Finding complete samples of such stars which are also…

A search for new members of the beta Pic, Tuc-Hor and epsilon Cha moving groups in the RAVE database

L. L. Kiss, A. Moor, T. Szalai +24

We report on the discovery of new members of nearby young moving groups, exploiting the full power of combining the RAVE survey with several stellar age diagnostic methods and foll…

Origins of the Thick Disk as Traced by the Alpha-Elements of Metal-Poor Giant Stars Selected from RAVE

G. R. Ruchti, J. P. Fulbright, R. F. G. Wyse +20

Theories of thick disk formation can be differentiated by measurements of stellar elemental abundances. We have undertaken a study of metal-poor stars selected from the RAVE spectr…
