The formation history of our Galaxy's nuclear stellar disc constrained from HST observations of the Quintuplet field

R. Schoedel, F. Nogueras-Lara, M. Hosek +9

Until recently it was thought that the nuclear stellar disc at the centre of our Galaxy was formed via quasi-continuous star formation over billions of years. However, an analysis…
