New Signatures of the Milky Way Formation in the Local Halo and Inner Halo Streamers in the Era of Gaia
Paola Re Fiorentin, Mario G. Lattanzi, Alessandro Spagna +1
We explore the vicinity of the Milky Way through the use of spectro-photometric data from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and high-quality proper motions derived from multi-epoch posi…
Properties of barred spiral disks in hydrodynamical cosmological simulations
David Goz, Pierluigi Monaco, Giuseppe Murante +1
We present a quantification of the properties of bars in two N-body+SPH cosmological simulations of spiral galaxies, named GA and AqC. The initial conditions were obtained using th…
The radial metallicity gradients in the Milky Way thick disk as fossil signatures of a primordial chemical distribution
A. Curir, A. L. Serra, A. Spagna +3
In this letter we examine the evolution of the radial metallicity gradient induced by secular processes, in the disk of an -body Milky Way-like galaxy. We assign a [Fe/H] value…
The thick disk rotation-metallicity correlation as a fossil of an "inverse chemical gradient" in the early Galaxy
Anna Curir, Mario G. Lattanzi, Alessandro Spagna +4
The thick disk rotation--metallicity correlation, \partial V_ϕ/\partial[Fe/H] =40÷50 km s^{-1}dex^{-1} represents an important signature of the formation processes of the galactic…
