Emergence of the Gaia Phase Space Spirals from Bending Waves
Keir Darling, Lawrence M. Widrow
We discuss the physical mechanism by which pure vertical bending waves in a stellar disc evolve to form phase space spirals similar to those discovered by Antoja et al. ( arXiv:180…

Bending Waves in the Milky Way's disc from halo substructure
Matthew H. Chequers, Lawrence M. Widrow, Keir Darling
We use -body simulations to investigate the excitation of bending waves in a Milky Way-like disc-bulge-halo system. The dark matter halo consists of a smooth component and a pop…
