The Canada-France Imaging Survey: Reconstructing the Milky Way Star Formation History from its White Dwarf Population

Nicholas J. Fantin, Patrick Côté, Alan W. McConnachie +15

As the remnants of stars with initial masses 8 M, white dwarfs contain valuable information on the formation histories of stellar populations. In this paper, w…

Escapees from the bar resonances. On the presence of low-eccentricity, metal-rich stars at the Solar vicinity

S. Khoperskov, P. Di Matteo, M. Haywood +2

Understanding radial migration is a crucial point to build relevant chemical and dynamical evolution models of the Milky Way disk. In this paper, we analyze a high-resolution N-bod…

Reviving old controversies: is the early Galaxy flat or round? Investigations into the early phases of the Milky Way formation through stellar kinematics and chemical abundances

P. Di Matteo, M. Spite, M. Haywood +4

We analyse a set of very metal-poor stars for which accurate chemical abundances have been obtained as part of the ESO Large Program "First stars" in the light of the Gaia DR2 data…

Hic sunt dracones: Cartography of the Milky Way spiral arms and bar resonances with Gaia Data Release 2

S. Khoperskov, O. Gerhard, P. Di Matteo +5

In this paper we introduce a new method for analysing Milky Way phase-space which allows us to reveal the imprint left by the Milky Way bar and spiral arms on the stars with full p…
