The K2 Galactic Archaeology Program Data Release 2: Asteroseismic results from campaigns 4, 6, & 7

Joel C. Zinn, Dennis Stello, Yvonne Elsworth +18

Studies of Galactic structure and evolution have benefitted enormously from Gaia kinematic information, though additional, intrinsic stellar parameters like age are required to bes…

Galactic Bar Resonances Inferred from Kinematically Hot Stars in Gaia EDR3

Daisuke Kawata, Junichi Baba, Jason A. S. Hunt +5

Using a numerical simulation of an isolated barred disc galaxy, we first demonstrate that the resonances of the inner bar structure induce more prominent features in the action spa…

Jeans modelling of the Milky Way's nuclear stellar disc

Mattia C. Sormani, John Magorrian, Francisco Nogueras-Lara +4

The nuclear stellar disc (NSD) is a flattened stellar structure that dominates the gravitational potential of the Milky Way at Galactocentric radii $30 \lesssim R \lesssim 300{\, \…

The Tilt of the Local Velocity Ellipsoid as Seen by Gaia

A. Everall, N. W. Evans, V. Belokurov +1

The Gaia Radial Velocity Spectrometer (RVS) provides a sample of 7,224,631 stars with full six-dimensional phase space information. Bayesian distances of these stars are available…

The chemical evolution of r-process elements from neutron star mergers: the role of a 2-phase interstellar medium

Ralph Schönrich, David H. Weinberg

Neutron star mergers (NM) are a plausible source of heavy r-process elements such as Europium, but previous chemical evolution models have either failed to reproduce the observed E…

The origin of the Gaia phase-plane spiral

James Binney, Ralph Schoenrich

A simple model is presented of the formation of the spiral the (z,v_z) phase plane of solar-neighbourhood stars that was recently discovered in Gaia data. The key is that the frequ…
