Overlapping abundance gradients and azimuthal gradients related to the spiral structure of the Galaxy
J. R. D. Lepine, P. Cruz, S. Scarano +6
The connection between some features of the metallicity gradient in the Galactic disk, best revealed by Open Clusters and Cepheids, and the spiral structure, is explored. The step-…
Chemically tagging the Hyades stream: Does it partly originate from the Hyades cluster?
L. Pompéia, T. Masseron, B. Famaey +19
The Hyades stream has long been thought to be a dispersed vestige of the Hyades cluster. However, recent analyses of the parallax distribution, of the mass function, and of the act…
Galactic kinematics with modified Newtonian dynamics
O. Bienaymé, B. Famaey, X. Wu +2
We look for observational signatures that could discriminate between Newtonian and modified Newtonian (MOND) dynamics in the Milky Way, in view of the advent of large astrometric a…
Spectroscopic binaries among Hipparcos M giants II. Binary frequency
A. Frankowski, B. Famaey, S. Van Eck +3
This paper is the second one in a series devoted to the study of properties of binaries involving M giants. The binary frequency of field M giants is derived and compared with the…
The wedding of modified dynamics and non-exotic dark matter in galaxy clusters
B. Famaey, G. W. Angus, G. Gentile +2
We summarize the status of Modified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) in galaxy clusters. The observed acceleration is typically larger than the acceleration threshold of MOND in the centr…
The Hyades stream: evaporated cluster or intrusion from the inner disk?
B. Famaey, F. Pont, X. Luri +3
The nature of the Hyades stream, or Hyades moving group, is a long-standing question of Galactic Astronomy. Is this stream caused by non-axisymmetric perturbations of the galactic…
