Tracing Hercules in Galactic azimuth with Gaia DR2

G. Monari, B. Famaey, A. Siebert +4

The second data release of the Gaia mission has revealed, in stellar velocity and action space, multiple ridges, the exact origin of which is still debated. Recently, we demonstrat…

Photo-astrometric distances, extinctions, and astrophysical parameters for Gaia DR2 stars brighter than G = 18

F. Anders, A. Khalatyan, C. Chiappini +19

Combining the precise parallaxes and optical photometry delivered by Gaia's second data release (Gaia DR2) with the photometric catalogues of PanSTARRS-1, 2MASS, and AllWISE, we de…

4MOST Consortium Survey 4: Milky Way Disc and Bulge High-Resolution Survey (4MIDABLE-HR)

T. Bensby, M. Bergemann, J. Rybizki +21

The signatures of the formation and evolution of a galaxy are imprinted in its stars. Their velocities, ages, and chemical compositions present major constraints on models of galax…

4MOST Consortium Survey 3: Milky Way Disc and Bulge Low-Resolution Survey (4MIDABLE-LR)

C. Chiappini, I. Minchev, E. Starkenburg +35

The mechanisms of the formation and evolution of the Milky Way are encoded in the orbits, chemistry and ages of its stars. With the 4MOST MIlky way Disk And BuLgE Low-Resolution Su…

4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals

R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335

We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…

Kinematics with Gaia DR2: The Force of a Dwarf

I. Carrillo, I. Minchev, M. Steinmetz +10

We use Gaia DR2 astrometric and line-of-sight velocity information combined with two sets of distances obtained with a Bayesian inference method to study the 3D velocity distributi…
