The rate of stellar encounters along a migrating orbit of the Sun

C. A. Martínez-Barbosa, L. Jílková, S. Portegies Zwart +1

The frequency of Galactic stellar encounters the Solar system experienced depends on the local density and velocity dispersion along the orbit of the Sun in the Milky Way galaxy. W…

The evolution of the Sun's birth cluster and the search for the solar siblings with Gaia

C. A. Martínez-Barbosa, A. G. A. Brown, T. Boekholt +3

We use self-consistent numerical simulations of the evolution and disruption of the Sun's birth cluster in the Milky Way potential to investigate the present-day phase space distri…

The solar siblings in the Gaia era

C. A. Martínez-Barbosa, A. G. A. Brown, S. Portegies Zwart

We perform realistic simulations of the Sun's birth cluster in order to predict the current distribution of solar siblings in the Galaxy. We study the possibility of finding the so…

Quest for finding the lost siblings of the Sun

C. Liu, G. Ruchti, S. Feltzing +4

The aim of this paper is to find lost siblings of the Sun by analyzing high resolution spectra. Finding solar siblings will enable us to constrain the parameters of the parental cl…

Radial Migration of the Sun in the Milky Way: a Statistical Study

C. A. Martínez-Barbosa, A. G. A Brown, S. Portegies Zwart

The determination of the birth radius of the Sun is important to understand the evolution and consequent disruption of the Sun's birth cluster in the Galaxy. Motivated by this fact…

Is the Sgr dSph a dark matter dominated system?

Carmen A. Martínez-Barbosa, Rigoberto A. Casas

We study the evolution of possible progenitors of Sgr dSph}using several numerical N-body simulations of different dwarf spheroidal galaxies both with and without dark matter, as t…
