A new Gaia census of OB associations within 1 kpc

Alexis L. Quintana, Nicholas J. Wright, Lilly A. Kormann +6

OB associations are primordial tracers of star formation and Galactic structure. Originally defined about 80 years ago, their historical membership lists have been superseded thank…

GASTRO library II: Exploring Chemical Bimodalities in Disk Galaxies with GSE-like Mergers and Massive Star-forming Clumps

João A. S. Amarante, Chervin F. P. Laporte, Victor P. Debattista +10

We use several smoothed particle hydrodynamics+N-body models as part of the GASTRO library to study the role of high-density star-forming clumpy regions and a single merger on the…

Shaping the Milky Way. II. The dark matter halo's response to the LMC's passage in a cosmological context

Elise Darragh-Ford, Nicolas Garavito-Camargo, Arpit Arora +15

The distribution of dark matter in the Milky Way (MW) is expected to exhibit a large-scale dynamical response to the recent infall of the LMC. This event produces a dynamical frict…

Build-up and survival of the disc: From numerical models of galaxy formation to the Milky Way

Matthew D. A. Orkney, Chervin F. P. Laporte

We study the build-up and survival of angular momentum in the stellar disc using a statistical suite of cosmological simulations of Milky Way-mass galaxies. Our results show that s…

Mapping the Distant and Metal-Poor Milky Way with SDSS-V

Vedant Chandra, Phillip A. Cargile, Alexander P. Ji +28

The fifth-generation Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS-V) is conducting the first all-sky low-resolution spectroscopic survey of the Milky Way's stellar halo. We describe the stellar…

Analogues of the Milky Way-Sagittarius interaction in the TNG50: effect on the Milky Way

Marcin Semczuk, Teresa Antoja, Alexandra Girón-Soto +1

The Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy is undoubtedly being disrupted in the tidal field of the Milky Way. The Milky Way disc is also found to be in a state of disequilibrium. The role of th…

The Nineteenth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

SDSS Collaboration, Gautham Adamane Pallathadka, Mojgan Aghakhanloo +210

Mapping the local and distant Universe is key to our understanding of it. For decades, the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) has made a concerted effort to map millions of celestial…

A new classification of ex-situ and in-situ Galactic globular clusters based on a method trained on Milky Way analogues in the TNG50 cosmological simulations

Pierre Boldrini, Paola Di Matteo, Chervin Laporte +3

We present a novel method combining existing cosmological simulations and orbital integration to study the hierarchical assembly of globular cluster (GC) populations in the Milky W…

The Milky Way in context: The formation of galactic discs and chemical sequences from a cosmological perspective

Matthew D. A. Orkney, Chervin F. P. Laporte, Robert J. J. Grand +1

We study the formation of chemical sequences in the stellar disc of Milky Way (MW)-mass galaxies in a full cosmological context with the auriga simulations. We focus on the conditi…

Dark matter spiral arms in Milky Way-like halos

Marcel Bernet, Pau Ramos, Teresa Antoja +9

The coupling between the dark matter (DM) halo and the stellar disc is a key factor in galactic evolution. While the interaction between structures like the Galactic bar and DM hal…

Shaping the Milky Way: The interplay of mergers and cosmic filaments

Arpit Arora, Nicolás Garavito-Camargo, Robyn E. Sanderson +12

The large-scale morphology of Milky Way (MW)-mass dark matter (DM) halos is shaped by two key processes: filamentary accretion from the cosmic web and interactions with massive sat…

Vertical structure and kinematics of the LMC disc from SDSS/Gaia

Ó. Jiménez-Arranz, D. Horta, R. P. van der Marel +4

[Abbreviated] Context: Studies of the LMC's internal kinematics have provided a detailed view of its structure, largely by the exquisite proper motion data supplied by Gaia. Howeve…
