Kinematics of the Galactic Halo from Horizontal Branch stars in the Hamburg/ESO Survey
Christopher Thom, Chris Flynn, Michael S. Bessell +6
Large samples of Field Horizontal Branch (FHB) stars make excellent tracers of the Galactic halo; by studying their kinematics, one can infer important physical properties of our G…

Chemical enrichment and star formation in the Milky Way disk III. Chemodynamical constraints
H. J. Rocha-Pinto, C. Flynn, J. Scalo +3
In this paper, we investigate some chemokinematical properties of the Milky Way disk, by using a sample composed by 424 late-type dwarfs. We show that the velocity dispersion of a…

Simulations of the heating of the Galactic stellar disc
Jyrki Hanninen, Chris Flynn
The velocity dispersion of nearby stars in the Galactic disc is well known to increase substantially with age; this is the so-called Age-Velocity relation, and is interpreted as a…
