On the kinematic signature of the Galactic warp as revealed by the LAMOST-TGAS data
Yang Huang, R. Schönrich, Xiaowei Liu +6
Using a sample of about 123,000 stars with accurate 3D velocity measurements from the LAMOST-TGAS data, we confirm the kinematic signature of the Galactic warp found by Schönrich &…
Age velocity dispersion relations and heating histories in disc galaxies
Michael Aumer, James Binney, Ralph Schönrich
We analyse the heating of stellar discs by non axisymmetric structures and giant molecular clouds (GMCs) in N-body simulations of growing disc galaxies. The analysis resolves long-…
The quiescent phase of galactic disc growth
Michael Aumer, James Binney, Ralph Schönrich
We perform a series of controlled N-body simulations of growing disc galaxies within non-growing, live dark matter haloes of varying mass and concentration. Our initial conditions…
Rings and Radial Waves in the Disk of the Milky Way
Yan Xu, Heidi Jo Newberg, Jeffrey L. Carlin +5
We show that in the anticenter region, between Galactic longitudes of , there is an oscillating asymmetry in the main sequence star counts on either side of…
Radial Flows and Angular Momentum Conservation in Galactic Chemical Evolution
Thomas Bilitewski, Ralph Schönrich
We study the effects of radial flows on Galactic chemical evolution. A simple analytic scheme is developed prescribing the coupling of infall from the intergalactic medium and radi…
