The three-phase evolution of the Milky Way
We illustrate the formation and evolution of the Milky Way over cosmic time, utilizing a
sample of 10 million red giant stars with full chemodynamical information, including …

On the existence of a very metal-poor disc in the Milky Way
H Zhang, A Ardern-Arentsen… - Monthly Notices of the …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
The question of whether the Milky Way's disc extends to low metallicity has been the subject
of debate for many years. We aim to address the question by employing a large sample of …

Why does the Milky Way have a bar?
There is no doubt that the Milky Way is a barred galaxy; however, factors that establish its
prominent morphology remain largely elusive. In this work, we attempt to constrain the …

Deciphering the Milky Way disc formation time encrypted in the bar chrono-kinematics
We present a novel method to constrain the formation time of the Milky Way disc using the
chrono-kinematic signatures of the inner Galaxy. We construct an O-rich Mira variable …

The Galactic Bulge Exploration. III. Calcium Triplet Metallicities for RR Lyrae Stars
RR Lyrae stars (RRLs) are excellent tracers of stellar populations for old, metal-poor
components in the the Milky Way and the Local Group. Their luminosities have a metallicity …

Insights into the Galactic Bulge Chemodynamical Properties from Gaia Data Release 3
We explore the chemodynamical properties of the Galaxy in the azimuthal velocity V ϕ and
metallicity [Fe/H] space using red giant stars from Gaia Data Release 3. The row-normalized …

Close binary fractions in accreted and in situ halo stars
The study of binary stars in the Galactic halo provides crucial insights into the dynamical
history and formation processes of the Milky Way. In this work, we aim to investigate the …

The epoch of the Milky Way's bar formation: dynamical modelling of Mira variables in the nuclear stellar disc
JL Sanders, D Kawata, N Matsunaga… - Monthly Notices of …, 2024 - academic.oup.com
ABSTRACT A key event in the history of the Milky Way is the formation of the bar. This event
affects the subsequent structural and dynamical evolution of the entire Galaxy. When the bar …
