Our Milky Way as a Pure-Disk Galaxy -- A Challenge for Galaxy Formation
Juntai Shen, R. Michael Rich, John Kormendy +3
Bulges are commonly believed to form in the dynamical violence of galaxy collisions and mergers. Here we model the stellar kinematics of the Bulge Radial Velocity Assay (BRAVA), an…
A Radial Velocity and Calcium Triplet abundance survey of field Small Magellanic Cloud giants
R. De Propris, R. M. Rich, R. C. Mallery +1
We present the results of a pilot wide-field radial velocity and metal abundance survey of red giants in ten fields in the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC). The targets lie at projecte…
Kinematics at the Edge of the Galactic Bulge: Evidence for Cylindrical Rotation
Christian D. Howard, R. Michael Rich, Will Clarkson +9
We present new results from BRAVA, a large scale radial velocity survey of the Galactic bulge, using M giant stars selected from the Two Micron All Sky Survey catalogue as targets…
