A New Mechanism for Radial Migration in Galactic Disks: Spiral-Bar Resonance Overlap
I. Minchev, B. Famaey
While it has long been known that a large number of short-lived transient spirals can cause stellar migration, here we report that another mechanism is also effective at mixing dis…
Low-Velocity Streams in the Solar Neighborhood Caused by the Galactic Bar
I. Minchev, C. Boily, A. Siebert +1
We find that a steady state bar induces transient features at low velocities in the solar neighborhood velocity distribution due to the initial response of the disc, following the…
Radial mixing in the outer Milky Way disk caused by an orbiting satellite
Alice C. Quillen, Ivan Minchev, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +1
Using test particle simulations we examine the structure of the outer Galactic disk as it is perturbed by a satellite in a tight eccentric orbit about the Galaxy. A satellite of ma…
Is the Milky Way ringing? The hunt for high velocity streams
I. Minchev, A. C. Quillen, M. Williams +4
We perform numerical simulations of a stellar galactic disk with initial conditions chosen to represent an unrelaxed population which might have been left following a merger. Stars…
