Alignment of the Milky Way and M31 with their cosmic environment. New insights from constrained Local Group simulations
Hanneke C. Woudenberg, Amina Helmi, Ewoud Wempe +4
The large-scale environment is thought to play an important role in setting galaxy properties. The Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31) reside in the Local Group, embedded in the Loc…
The metal-poor tail of the APOGEE survey I. Uncovering [Fe/H] < -2.5 stars from the inner Galaxy to the Magellanic Clouds
M. Montelius, E. Starkenburg, H. Woudenberg +9
In the search for metal-poor stars, large spectroscopic surveys are an invaluable tool. However, the spectra of metal-poor stars can be difficult to analyse because of the relative…
Evidence of a massive accretion event 1.8 billion years before the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger
Davide Massari, Chiara Zerbinati, Cristiano Fanelli +15
The merger history of the Galaxy has been traced back firmly to redshift 2 (10 Billion years ago). While evidence for the existence of at least one more significant merger before t…
