Vertical structure of Galactic disk kinematics from LAMOST K giants

Ping-Jie Ding, Xiang-Xiang Xue, Chengqun Yang +3

We examine the vertical structure of Galactic disk kinematics over a Galactocentric radial distance range of and up to away from the Galactic pla…

Kinematics of Solar neighborhood stars and its dependency on age and metallicity

Zong-Bo Huyan, Zi Zhu, Jia-Cheng Liu

We have constructed a catalog containing best available astrometric, photometric, radial velocity and astrophysical data for mainly F-type and G-type stars (called the Astrometric…

Aberration in proper motions for stars in our Galaxy

Jia-Cheng Liu, Yi Xie, Zi Zhu

Accelerations of both the solar system barycenter (SSB) and stars in the Milky Way cause a systematic observational effect on the stellar proper motions, which was first studied in…

Constructing a Galactic coordinate system based on near-infrared and radio catalogs

Jia-Cheng Liu, Zi Zhu, Bo Hu

The definition of the Galactic coordinate system was announced by the IAU Sub-Commission 33b on behalf of the IAU in 1958. For more than 50 years the definition of the Galactic coo…

Reconsidering the galactic coordinate system

Jia-Cheng Liu, Zi Zhu, Hong Zhang

Initially defined by the IAU in 1958, the galactic coordinate system was thereafter in 1984 transformed from the B1950.0 FK4-based system to the J2000.0 FK5-based system. In 1994,…
