Stars with fast Galactic rotation observed in Gaia TGAS: a signature driven by the Perseus arm?
Jason A. S. Hunt, Daisuke Kawata, Giacomo Monari +3
We report on the detection of a small overdensity of stars in velocity space with systematically higher Galactocentric rotation velocity than the Sun by about 20 km s in the…
The selection function of the RAVE survey
Jennifer Wojno, Georges Kordopatis, Tilmann Piffl +23
We characterize the selection function of RAVE using 2MASS as our underlying population, which we assume represents all stars which could have potentially been observed. We evaluat…
Staying away from the bar: the local dynamical signature of slow and fast bars in the Milky Way
Giacomo Monari, Benoit Famaey, Arnaud Siebert +3
Both the three-dimensional density of red clump giants and the gas kinematics in the inner Galaxy indicate that the pattern speed of the Galactic bar could be much lower than previ…
The effects of bar-spiral coupling on stellar kinematics in the Galaxy
Giacomo Monari, Benoit Famaey, Arnaud Siebert +3
We investigate models of the Milky Way disc taking into account simultaneously the bar and a two-armed quasi-static spiral pattern. Away from major resonance overlaps, the mean ste…
Chemical separation of disc components using RAVE
Jennifer Wojno, Georges Kordopatis, Matthias Steinmetz +17
We present evidence from the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) survey of chemically separated, kinematically distinct disc components in the solar neighbourhood. We apply probabili…
Identification of Globular Cluster Stars in RAVE data II: Extended tidal debris around NGC 3201
B. Anguiano, G. M. De Silva, K. Freeman +22
We report the identification of extended tidal debris potentially associated with the globular cluster NGC 3201, using the RAVE catalogue. We find the debris stars are located at a…
