Radial and vertical flows induced by galactic spiral arms: likely contributors to our "wobbly Galaxy''
Carole Faure, Arnaud Siebert, Benoit Famaey
In an equilibrium axisymmetric galactic disc, the mean galactocentric radial and vertical velocities are expected to be zero everywhere. In recent years, various large spectroscopi…
The RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE): Fourth data release
G. Kordopatis, G. Gilmore, M. Steinmetz +48
We present the stellar atmospheric parameters (effective temperature, surface gravity, overall metallicity), radial velocities, individual abundances and distances determined for 4…
The properties of the local spiral arms from RAVE data: two-dimensional density wave approach
A. Siebert, B. Famaey, J. Binney +19
Using the RAVE survey, we recently brought to light a gradient in the mean galactocentric radial velocity of stars in the extended solar neighbourhood. This gradient likely origina…
