GaiaUnlimited: The old stellar disc of the Milky Way as traced by the Red Clump
Shourya Khanna, Jie Yu, Ronald Drimmel +9
We present an exploration of the Milky Way's structural parameters using an all-sky sample of RC giants to map the stellar density from the Galactic disc beyond 3 kpc. These evolve…
Stellar Population Astrophysics (SPA) with the TNG: NLTE atmospheric parameters and abundances of giant stars in 33 Open Clusters
M. Dal Ponte, V. D'Orazi, A. Bragaglia +11
Open clusters serve as important tools for accurately studying the chemical evolution of the Milky Way. By combining precise chemical data from high-resolution spectra with informa…
The completeness of the open cluster census towards the Galactic anticentre
Emily L. Hunt, Tristan Cantat-Gaudin, Friedrich Anders +9
Open clusters have long been used as tracers of Galactic structure. However, without a selection function to describe the completeness of the cluster census, it is difficult to qua…
The realm of Aurora. Density distribution of metal-poor giants in the heart of the Galaxy
Evgeny P. Kurbatov, Vasily Belokurov, Sergey Koposov +11
The innermost portions of the Milky Way's stellar halo have avoided scrutiny until recently. The lack of wide-area survey data, made it difficult to reconstruct an uninterrupted vi…
