In the thick of it: metal-poor disc stars in RAVE
G. Kordopatis, G. Gilmore, R. F. G. Wyse +17
By selecting in the RAVE-DR4 survey the stars located between 1 and 2 kpc above the Galactic plane, we question the consistency of the simplest three-component model (thin disc, th…
A new stellar chemo-kinematic relation reveals the merger history of the Milky Way disc
I. Minchev, C. Chiappini, M. Martig +27
The velocity dispersions of stars near the Sun are known to increase with stellar age, but age can be difficult to determine so a proxy like the abundance of alpha elements (e.g.,…
The RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE): Fourth data release
G. Kordopatis, G. Gilmore, M. Steinmetz +48
We present the stellar atmospheric parameters (effective temperature, surface gravity, overall metallicity), radial velocities, individual abundances and distances determined for 4…
Chromospherically Active Stars in the RAVE Survey. I. The Catalogue
M. Žerjal, T. Zwitter, G. Matijevič +15
RAVE, the unbiased magnitude limited survey of the southern sky stars, contained 456,676 medium-resolution spectra at the time of our analysis. Spectra cover the CaII IRT range whi…
Diffuse interstellar band at 8620 Å in RAVE: A new method for detecting the diffuse interstellar band in spectra of cool stars
J. Kos, T. Zwitter, E. K. Grebel +16
Diffuse interstellar bands are usually observed in spectra of hot stars, where interstellar lines are rarely blended with stellar ones. The need for hot stars is a strong limitatio…
The RAVE survey: the Galactic escape speed and the mass of the Milky Way
T. Piffl, C. Scannapieco, J. Binney +22
We construct new estimates on the Galactic escape speed at various Galactocentric radii using the latest data release of the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE DR4). Compared to prev…
