PLATO as it is: a legacy mission for Galactic archaeology

A. Miglio, C. Chiappini, B. Mosser +102

Deciphering the assembly history of the Milky Way is a formidable task, which becomes possible only if one can produce high-resolution chrono-chemo-kinematical maps of the Galaxy.…

Anisotropies in GeV-TeV cosmic ray electrons and positrons

Silvia Manconi, Mattia Di Mauro, Fiorenza Donato

High energy cosmic ray electrons and positrons probe the local properties of our Galaxy. In fact, electromagnetic energy losses limit the typical propagation scale of GeV-TeV elect…
