Photo-astrometric distances, extinctions, and astrophysical parameters for Gaia DR2 stars brighter than G = 18

F. Anders, A. Khalatyan, C. Chiappini +19

Combining the precise parallaxes and optical photometry delivered by Gaia's second data release (Gaia DR2) with the photometric catalogues of PanSTARRS-1, 2MASS, and AllWISE, we de…

The Galactic warp revealed by Gaia DR2 kinematics

E. Poggio, R. Drimmel, M. G. Lattanzi +14

Using Gaia DR2 astrometry, we map the kinematic signature of the Galactic stellar warp out to a distance of 7 kpc from the Sun. Combining Gaia DR2 and 2MASS photometry, we identify…

A dynamically young and perturbed Milky Way disk

T. Antoja, A. Helmi, M. Romero-Gomez +10

The evolution of the Milky Way disk, which contains most of the stars in the Galaxy, is affected by several phenomena. For example, the bar and the spiral arms of the Milky Way ind…

The analysis of realistic Stellar Gaia mock catalogues. I. Red Clump Stars as tracers of the central bar

Merce Romero-Gomez, Francesca Figueras, Teresa Antoja +2

In this first paper we simulate the population of disc Red Clump stars to be observed by Gaia. We generate a set of test particles and we evolve it in a 3D barred Milky Way like ga…

Kinematic groups across the MW disc: insights from models and from the RAVE catalogue

T. Antoja, A. Helmi, F. Figueras +2

With the advent of the Gaia data, the unprecedented kinematic census of great part of the Milky Way disc will allow us to characterise the local kinematic groups and new groups in…

Modelling the inner disc of the Milky Way with manifolds. I - A first step

M. Romero-Gomez, E. Athanassoula, T. Antoja +1

We study the bar-driven dynamics in the inner part of the Milky Way by using invariant manifolds. This theory has been successfully applied to describe the morphology and kinematic…
