On the Survival of High-Altitude Open Clusters within the Milky Way Galaxy Tides
L. A. Martinez-Medina, B. Pichardo, A. Peimbert +1
It is a common assumption that high-altitude open clusters live longer compared with clusters moving close to the Galactic plane. This is because at high altitudes, open clusters a…
Revealing the spiral arms through radial migration and the shape of the Metallicity Distribution Function
L. A. Martinez-Medina, B. Pichardo, E. Moreno +1
Recent observations show that the Milky Way's metallicity distribution function (MDF) changes its shape as a function of radius. This new evidence of radial migration within the st…
Discovery of a Metal-Poor Field Giant with a Globular Cluster Second-Generation Abundance Pattern
J. G. Fernández-Trincado, A. C. Robin, E. Moreno +31
We report on detection, from observations obtained with the APOGEE spectroscopic survey, of a metal-poor ([Fe/H] dex) field giant star with an extreme Mg-Al abundance rati…
On the Origin of High-Altitude Open Clusters in the Milky Way
L. A. Martinez-Medina, B. Pichardo, E. Moreno +2
We present a dynamical study of the effect of the bar and spiral arms on the simulated orbits of open clusters in the Galaxy. Specifically, this work is devoted to the puzzling pre…
