The imprint of clump formation at high redshift. I. A disc alpha-abundance dichotomy
Adam J. Clarke, Victor P. Debattista, David L. Nidever +10
The disc structure of the Milky Way is marked by a chemical dichotomy, with high-alpha and low-alpha abundance sequences, traditionally identified with the geometric thick and thin…
Quantifying the Origin and Distribution of Intracluster Light in a Fornax-like Cluster
Kathryn A. Harris, Victor P. Debattista, Fabio Governato +9
Using a cosmological -body simulation, we investigate the origin and distribution of stars in the intracluster light (ICL) of a Fornax-like cluster. In a dark matter only simula…
The origin of type-I profiles in cluster lenticulars: An interplay between ram pressure stripping and tidally-induced spiral migration
Adam J. Clarke, Victor P. Debattista, Rok Roškar +1
Using -body+SPH simulations of galaxies falling into a cluster, we study the evolution of their radial density profiles. When evolved in isolation, galaxies develop a type~II (d…
Imprints of radial migration on the Milky Way's metallicity distribution functions
Sarah R. Loebman, Victor P. Debattista, David L. Nidever +5
Recent analysis of the SDSS-III/APOGEE Data Release 12 stellar catalogue has revealed that the Milky Way's metallicity distribution function (MDF) changes shape as a function of ra…
Stellar orbital properties as diagnostics of the origin of the stellar halo
Monica Valluri, Sarah R. Loebman, Jeremy Bailin +3
We examine metallicities, ages and orbital properties of halo stars in a Milky-Way like disk galaxy formed in the cosmological hydrodynamical MaGICC simulations. Halo stars were ei…
The RMS Survey: Near-IR Spectroscopy of Massive Young Stellar Objects
H. D. B. Cooper, S. L. Lumsden, R. D. Oudmaijer +6
Near-infrared H- and K-band spectra are presented for 247 objects, selected from the Red MSX Source (RMS) survey as potential young stellar objects (YSOs). 195 (~80%) of the target…
