Close encounters involving RAVE stars beyond the 47 Tucanae tidal radius

J. G. Fernández-Trincado, A. C. Robin, C. Reylé +5

The most accurate 6D phase-space information from the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) was used to integrate the orbits of 105 stars around the galactic globular cluster 47 Tucana…

Searching for tidal tails around Centauri using RR Lyrae Stars

J. G. Fernández-Trincado, A. K. Vivas, C. E. Mateu +5

We present a survey for RR Lyrae stars in an area of 50 deg around the globular cluster Centauri, aimed to detect debris material from the alleged progenitor galaxy of the…

Clumpy Disc and Bulge Formation

J. Perez, O. Valenzuela, P. Tissera +1

We present a set of hydrodynamical/Nbody controlled simulations of isolated gas rich galaxies that self-consistently include SN feedback and a detailed chemical evolution model, bo…

Simulations of isolated dwarf galaxies formed in dark matter halos with different mass assembly histories

A. González-Samaniego, P. Colín, V. Avila-Reese +2

We present high-resolution N-body/hydrodynamics simulations of dwarf galaxies formed in isolated CDM halos with the same virial mass, Mv~2.5x10^10 Msun at z=0, in order to (1) stud…

Understanding the spiral structure of the Milky Way using the local kinematic groups

T. Antoja, F. Figueras, M. Romero-Gómez +3

We study the spiral arm influence on the solar neighbourhood stellar kinematics. As the nature of the Milky Way (MW) spiral arms is not completely determined, we study two models:…

Stellar Kinematic Constraints on Galactic Structure Models Revisited: Bar and Spiral Arm Resonances

T. Antoja, O. Valenzuela, B. Pichardo +3

We study the phase space available to the local stellar distribution using a Galactic potential consistent with several recent observational constraints. We find that the induced p…
