PLATO as it is: a legacy mission for Galactic archaeology
A. Miglio, C. Chiappini, B. Mosser +102
Deciphering the assembly history of the Milky Way is a formidable task, which becomes possible only if one can produce high-resolution chrono-chemo-kinematical maps of the Galaxy.…
Early flattening of dark matter cusps in dwarf spheroidal galaxies
Carlo Nipoti, James Binney
Simulations of the clustering of cold dark matter yield dark-matter halos that have central density cusps, but observations of totally dark-matter dominated dwarf spheroidal galaxi…
Fountain-driven gas accretion by the Milky Way
F. Marinacci, F. Fraternali, J. Binney +3
Accretion of fresh gas at a rate of ~ 1 M_{sun} yr^{-1} is necessary in star-forming disc galaxies, such as the Milky Way, in order to sustain their star-formation rates. In this w…
Galactic fountains and gas accretion
F. Marinacci, J. Binney, F. Fraternali +3
Star-forming disc galaxies such as the Milky Way need to accrete $\gsim$ 1 of gas each year to sustain their star formation. This gas accretion is likely to come from t…
Do high-velocity clouds form by thermal instability?
J. Binney, C. Nipoti, F. Fraternali
We examine the proposal that the HI "high-velocity" clouds (HVCs) surrounding the Milky Way and other disc galaxies form by condensation of the hot galactic corona via thermal inst…
Modified Newtonian Dynamics in the Milky Way
B. Famaey, J. Binney
Both microlensing surveys and radio-frequency observations of gas flow imply that the inner Milky Way is completely dominated by baryons, contrary to the predictions of standard co…
