NGC 1605 is not a binary cluster

Friedrich Anders, Alfred Castro-Ginard, Juan Casado +2

The open star cluster NGC 1605 has recently been reported to in fact consist of two clusters (one intermediate-aged and one old) that merged via a flyby capture. Here we show that…

The (im)possibility of strong chemical tagging

L. Casamiquela, A. Castro-Ginard, F. Anders +1

The possibility of identifying co-natal stars that have dispersed into the Galactic disc based on chemistry only is called strong chemical tagging. Its feasibility has been debated…

Deciphering the evolution of the Milky Way discs: Gaia APOGEE Kepler giant stars and the Besançon Galaxy Model

N. Lagarde, C. Reylé, C. Chiappini +13

We investigate the properties of the double sequences of the Milky Way discs visible in the [/Fe] vs [Fe/H] diagram. In the framework of Galactic formation and evolution, we dis…

On the Milky Way spiral arms from open clusters in Gaia EDR3

A. Castro-Ginard, P. J. McMillan, X. Luri +7

Context. The physical processes driving the formation of Galactic spiral arms are still under debate. Studies using open clusters favour the description of the Milky Way spiral arm…

3D kinematics and age distribution of the Open Cluster population

Y. Tarricq, C. Soubiran, L. Casamiquela +14

Open Clusters (OCs) can trace with a great accuracy the evolution of the Galactic disk. The aim of this work is to study the kinematical behavior of the OC population over time. We…

The outer disc in shambles: blind detection of Monoceros and ACS with Gaia's astrometric sample

P. Ramos, T. Antoja, C. Mateu +5

The astrometric sample of Gaia allows us to study the outermost Galactic disc, the halo and their interface. It is precisely at the very edge of the disc where the effects of exter…
