We describe an experiment to measure the mass of the Milky Way galaxy. The experiment is based on calculated light travel times along orthogonal directions in the Schwarzschild metric of the Galactic center. We show that the difference is proportional to

Chemodynamical modelling of the Milky Way [PDF]
Chemodynamical models of our Galaxy that have analytic Extended Distribution Functions (EDFs) are likely to play a key role in extracting science from surveys in the era of Gaia.Comment: 6 pages to appear in "Reconstructing the Milky Way history ...

This review summarises the invited presentation I gave on the Milky Way disc. The idea underneath was to touch those topics that can be considered hot nowadays in the Galactic disk research: the reality of the thick disk, the spiral structure of the ...

If the CO distribution of the Milky Way is described as a truncated exponential rather than as a molecular ring with some gas at large radii, it becomes easier to understand the evolution of the disk of stars. The star formation rate per unit molecular gas mass is constant as a function of radius, and the H2 depletion time turns out to be only a few ...

We have for the first time identified the early stellar disk in the Milky Way by using a combination of elemental abundances and kinematics. Using data from APOGEE DR17 and Gaia we select stars in the Mg–Mn–Al–Fe plane with elemental abundances ...

YOUR correspondent, Mr. Jeremiah, after quoting the words of the Llangadock “Oracle,” adds, “meaning that the wind will blow from that quarter.” Did Mr. Jeremiah interpret the man's meaning correctly? If so it is at variance with a popular belief in Hampshire, viz., that in whichever way the Milky Way may be seen over night, the wind is sure to blow ...
