On the Survival of High-Altitude Open Clusters within the Milky Way Galaxy Tides
L. A. Martinez-Medina, B. Pichardo, A. Peimbert +1
It is a common assumption that high-altitude open clusters live longer compared with clusters moving close to the Galactic plane. This is because at high altitudes, open clusters a…
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…
Revealing the spiral arms through radial migration and the shape of the Metallicity Distribution Function
L. A. Martinez-Medina, B. Pichardo, E. Moreno +1
Recent observations show that the Milky Way's metallicity distribution function (MDF) changes its shape as a function of radius. This new evidence of radial migration within the st…
