The Rich Are Different: Evidence from the RAVE Survey for Stellar Radial Migration
G. Kordopatis, J. Binney, G. Gilmore +21
Using the RAdial Velocity Experiment fourth data release (RAVE DR4), and a new metallicity calibration that will be also taken into account in the future RAVE DR5, we investigate t…
Characterizing the High-Velocity Stars of RAVE: The Discovery of a Metal-Rich Halo Star Born in the Galactic Disk
K. Hawkins, G. Kordopatis, G. Gilmore +21
We aim to characterize high-velocity (HiVel) stars in the solar vicinity both chemically and kinematically using the fourth data release of the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE). W…
Pseudo Three-dimensional Maps of the Diffuse Interstellar Band at 862 nm
Janez Kos, Tomaž Zwitter, Rosemary Wyse +20
The diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs) are absorption lines observed in visual and near infrared spectra of stars. Understanding their origin in the interstellar medium (ISM) is one…
Chemical gradients in the Milky Way from the RAVE data. II. Giant stars
C. Boeche, A. Siebert, T. Piffl +19
We provide new constraints on the chemo-dynamical models of the Milky Way by measuring the radial and vertical chemical gradients for the elements Mg, Al, Si, Ti, and Fe in the Gal…
Weighing the local dark matter with RAVE red clump stars
O. Bienaymé, B. Famaey, A. Siebert +16
We determine the Galactic potential in the solar neigbourhood from RAVE observations. We select red clump stars for which accurate distances, radial velocities, and metallicities h…
Constraining the Galaxy's dark halo with RAVE stars
T. Piffl, J. Binney, P. J. McMillan +17
We use the kinematics of giant stars that lie within kpc of the plane to measure the vertical profile of mass density near the Sun. We find that the dark…
