4MOST - 4m Multi Object Spectroscopic Telescope
Eric Depagne, the 4MOST consortium
4MOST (4m Multi Object Spectroscopic Telescope) is a spectroscopic facility that will be installed on ESO's VISTA around 2020. The science rationale of this facility are to be foun…
Spectroscopic Signatures of Extra-Tidal Stars Around the Globular Clusters NGC 6656 (M22), NGC 3201 and NGC 1851 from RAVE
Andrea Kunder, G. Bono, T. Piffl +22
Stellar population studies of globular clusters have suggested that the brightest clusters in the Galaxy might actually be the remnant nuclei of dwarf spheroidal galaxies. If the p…
Chemical gradients in the Milky Way from the RAVE data. II. Giant stars
C. Boeche, A. Siebert, T. Piffl +19
We provide new constraints on the chemo-dynamical models of the Milky Way by measuring the radial and vertical chemical gradients for the elements Mg, Al, Si, Ti, and Fe in the Gal…
Constraining the Galaxy's dark halo with RAVE stars
T. Piffl, J. Binney, P. J. McMillan +17
We use the kinematics of giant stars that lie within kpc of the plane to measure the vertical profile of mass density near the Sun. We find that the dark…
