The Rich Are Different: Evidence from the RAVE Survey for Stellar Radial Migration

G. Kordopatis, J. Binney, G. Gilmore +21

Using the RAdial Velocity Experiment fourth data release (RAVE DR4), and a new metallicity calibration that will be also taken into account in the future RAVE DR5, we investigate t…

Scaling Laws for Dark Matter Halos in Late-Type and Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

John Kormendy, K. C. Freeman

Dark matter (DM) halos of Sc-Im and dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies satisfy scaling laws: halos in lower-luminosity galaxies have smaller core radii, higher central densities, and…

APASS Landolt-Sloan BVgri photometry of RAVE stars. I. Data, effective temperatures and reddenings

U. Munari, A. Henden, A. Frigo +24

We provide APASS photometry in the Landolt BV and Sloan g'r'i' bands for all the 425,743 stars included in the latest 4th RAVE Data Release. The internal accuracy of the APASS phot…

Scaling Laws for Dark Matter Halos in Late-Type and Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies

John Kormendy, K. C. Freeman

Dark matter (DM) halos of Sc-Im galaxies satisfy scaling laws analogous to the fundamental plane relations for elliptical galaxies. Halos in less luminous galaxies have smaller cor…

Chemical gradients in the Milky Way from the RAVE data. II. Giant stars

C. Boeche, A. Siebert, T. Piffl +19

We provide new constraints on the chemo-dynamical models of the Milky Way by measuring the radial and vertical chemical gradients for the elements Mg, Al, Si, Ti, and Fe in the Gal…

Weighing the local dark matter with RAVE red clump stars

O. Bienaymé, B. Famaey, A. Siebert +16

We determine the Galactic potential in the solar neigbourhood from RAVE observations. We select red clump stars for which accurate distances, radial velocities, and metallicities h…
