The GALAH Survey: Chemical Clocks

Michael R. Hayden, Sanjib Sharma, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +27

Previous studies have found that the elemental abundances of a star correlate directly with its age and metallicity. Using this knowledge, we derive ages for a sample of 250,000 st…

The GALAH survey: properties of the Galactic disk(s) in the solar neighbourhood

L. Duong, K. C. Freeman, M. Asplund +26

Using data from the GALAH pilot survey, we determine properties of the Galactic thin and thick disks near the solar neighbourhood. The data cover a small range of Galactocentric ra…

The GALAH survey: Chemical Tagging of Star Clusters and New Members in the Pleiades

Janez Kos, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Ken Freeman +25

The technique of chemical tagging uses the elemental abundances of stellar atmospheres to `reconstruct' chemically homogeneous star clusters that have long since dispersed. The GAL…

Theia: Faint objects in motion or the new astrometry frontier

The Theia Collaboration, Celine Boehm, Alberto Krone-Martins +96

In the context of the ESA M5 (medium mission) call we proposed a new satellite mission, Theia, based on relative astrometry and extreme precision to study the motion of very faint…

The Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE): Fifth Data Release

Andrea Kunder, Georges Kordopatis, Matthias Steinmetz +51

Data Release 5 (DR5) of the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) is the fifth data release from a magnitude-limited (9< I < 12) survey of stars randomly selected in the southern hemis…

SPACE: the SPectroscopic All-sky Cosmic Explorer

A. Cimatti, M. Robberto, C. M. Baugh +18

We describe the scientific motivations, the mission concept and the instrumentation of SPACE, a class-M mission proposed for concept study at the first call of the ESA Cosmic-Visio…

The Observed properties of Dark Matter on small spatial scales

Gerard Gilmore, Mark I. Wilkinson, Rosemary F. G. Wyse +3

We present a synthesis of recent photometric and kinematic data for several of the most dark-matter dominated galaxies. There is a bimodal distribution in half-light radii, with st…

Cats and Dogs, Hair and A Hero: A Quintet of New Milky Way Companions

V. Belokurov, D. B. Zucker, N. W. Evans +31

We present five new satellites of the Milky Way discovered in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) imaging data, four of which were followed-up with either the Subaru or the Isaac Newto…

The Field of Streams: Sagittarius and its Siblings

V. Belokurov, D. B. Zucker, N. W. Evans +18

We use Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 (DR5) u,g,r,i,z photometry to study Milky Way halo substructure in the area around the North Galactic Cap. A simple color cut…

Dynamics and the Origin of Low-Mass Galaxies in the Virgo Cluster

Christopher J. Conselice, John S. Gallagher, Rosemary F. G. Wyse

Early-type dwarfs are the most common galaxy in the local universe, yet their origin and evolution remain a mystery. Various cosmological scenarios predict that dwarf-like galaxies…

ISOGAL-DENIS detection of red giants with weak mass loss in the Galactic Bulge

A. Omont, S. Ganesh, C. Alard +21

The ISOGAL project is a survey of the stellar populations, structure, and recent star formation history of the inner disk and bulge of the Galaxy. ISOGAL combines 15 and 7micron IS…
