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…
Pseudo Three-dimensional Maps of the Diffuse Interstellar Band at 862 nm
Janez Kos, Tomaž Zwitter, Rosemary Wyse +20
The diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are absorption lines observed in visual and near infrared spectra of stars. Understanding their origin in the interstellar medium (ISM) is one…
Chemical gradients in the Milky Way from the RAVE data. II. Giant stars
C. Boeche, A. Siebert, T. Piffl +19
We provide new constraints on the chemo-dynamical models of the Milky Way by measuring the radial and vertical chemical gradients for the elements Mg, Al, Si, Ti, and Fe in the Gal…
Weighing the local dark matter with RAVE red clump stars
O. Bienaymé, B. Famaey, A. Siebert +16
We determine the Galactic potential in the solar neigbourhood from RAVE observations. We select red clump stars for which accurate distances, radial velocities, and metallicities h…
Constraining the Galaxy's dark halo with RAVE stars
T. Piffl, J. Binney, P. J. McMillan +17
We use the kinematics of giant stars that lie within kpc of the plane to measure the vertical profile of mass density near the Sun. We find that the dark…
Kinematic modelling of the Milky Way using the RAVE and GCS stellar surveys
S. Sharma, J. Bland-Hawthorn, J. Binney +19
We investigate the kinematic parameters of the Milky Way disc using the RAVE and GCS stellar surveys. We do this by fitting a kinematic model to the data taking the selection funct…
