RAVE- First Results and Second Data Release
A. Siebert, the RAVE collaboration
RAVE, the RAdial Velocity Experiment, is an ambitious program to conduct a survey to measure the radial velocities, metallicities and abundance ratios for up to a million stars usi…
Estimation of the Tilt of the Stellar Velocity Ellipsoid from RAVE and Implications for Mass Models
A. Siebert, O. Bienaymé, J. Binney +16
We present a measure of the inclination of the velocity ellipsoid at 1 kpc below the Galactic plane using a sample of red clump giants from the RAVE DR2 release. We find that the v…
Diffuse interstellar bands in RAVE Survey spectra
U. Munari, L. Tomasella, M. Fiorucci +19
We have used spectra of hot stars from the RAVE Survey in order to investigate the visibility and properties of five diffuse interstellar bands previously reported in the literatur…
The Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE): second data release
T. Zwitter, A. Siebert, U. Munari +51
We present the second data release of the Radial Velocity Experiment (RAVE), an ambitious spectroscopic survey to measure radial velocities (RVs) and stellar atmosphere parameters…
Galactic kinematics with RAVE data: I. The distribution of stars towards the Galactic poles
L. Veltz, O. Bienaymé, K. C. Freeman +16
We analyze the distribution of G and K type stars towards the Galactic poles using RAVE and ELODIE radial velocities, 2MASS photometric star counts, and UCAC2 proper motions. The c…
On the age heterogeneity of the Pleiades, Hyades and Sirius moving groups
Benoit Famaey, Arnaud Siebert, Alain Jorissen
We investigate the nature of the classical low-velocity structures in the local velocity field, i.e. the Pleiades, Hyades and Sirius moving groups. After using a wavelet transform…
