The Dawning of the Stream of Aquarius in RAVE
Mary E. K. Williams, Matthias Steinmetz, Sanjib Sharma +22
We identify a new, nearby (0.5 < d < 10 kpc) stream in data from the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE). As the majority of stars in the stream lie in the constellation of Aquarius…
Detection of a radial velocity gradient in the extended local disc with RAVE
A. Siebert, B. Famaey, I. Minchev +22
Using a sample of 213,713 stars from the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) survey, limited to a distance of 2 kpc from the Sun and to |z|<1 kpc, we report the detection of a veloci…
Structure in phase space associated with spiral and bar density waves in an N-body galactic disk
Alice C. Quillen, Jamie Dougherty, Micaela B. Bagley +2
An N-body hybrid simulation, integrating both massive and tracer particles, of a Galactic disk is used to study the stellar phase space distribution or velocity distributions in di…
A New Method for Determining the Milky Way Bar Pattern Speed
Ivan Minchev, Jason Nordhaus, Alice Quillen
Previous work has related the Galactic bar to structure in the local stellar velocity distribution. Here we show that the bar also influences the spatial gradients of the velocity…
