Observational Constraints of Radial Migration in the Galactic Disc Driven by the Slowing Bar

HanYuan Zhang, Vasily Belokurov, N. Wyn Evans +7

Radial migration is an important dynamical effect that has reshaped the Galactic disc, but its origin has yet to be elucidated. In this work, we present evidence that resonant drag…

Hunting for Polluted White Dwarfs and Other Treasures with Gaia XP Spectra and Unsupervised Machine Learning

Malia L. Kao, Keith Hawkins, Laura K. Rogers +5

White dwarfs (WDs) polluted by exoplanetary material provide the unprecedented opportunity to directly observe the interiors of exoplanets. However, spectroscopic surveys are often…
