The Astrophysical JournalWe present a novel, deep-learning-based method—dubbed Galactic-Seismology Substructures and Streams Hunter, or GS ^3 Hunter for short—to search for substructures and streams in stellar kinematics data.

Detection of Multiple Phase Space Overdensities of GSE Stars by Orbit Integration
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In N -body simulations, nearly radial mergers can form shell-like overdensities in the sky position and phase space ( r − v _r ) due to the combination of dynamical friction and tidal stripping.

, 2017 The search for metal-free stars has so far been unsuccessful, proving that if there are surviving stars from the first generation, they are rare, they have been polluted, or we have been looking in the wrong place.

The origin of the Milky Way globular clusters [PDF]
, 2016 We present a cosmological zoom-in simulation of a Milky Way-like galaxy used to explore the formation and evolution of star clusters. We investigate in particular the origin of the bimodality observed in the colour and metallicity of globular clusters, and the environmental evolution through cosmic times in the form of tidal tensors.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.The C. elegans tetraspanin‐7 (tsp‐7) is a homologue of human CD63, which is a negative regulator of autophagy. The C. elegans strain, tm5761, has a dysfunctional (knockout) tsp‐7 gene. When compared to the wild‐type strain, the tm5761 strain shows increased: life‐ and health‐span; thermotolerance, and stress‐induced locomotion.

Life in the fast lane: a direct view of the dynamics, formation, and evolution of the Milky Way’s bar [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019 Studies of the ages, abundances, and motions of individual stars in the Milky Way provide one of the best ways to study the evolution of disc galaxies over cosmic time.

An Inward-moving and Asymmetric Velocity Wave Detected in LAMOST-Gaia
The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe phase space, as coded by kinematic parameters and chemical abundances, is crucial for understanding the formation of the Galactic disk. Using red giant stars from the Galactic thin disk with [Fe/H] > − 0.8 and low- α ratios identified in LAMOST-Gaia,

Disentangling Stellar Age Estimates from Galactic Chemodynamical Evolution
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Stellar ages are key for determining the formation history of the Milky Way, but are difficult to measure precisely. Furthermore, methods that use chemical abundances to infer ages may entangle the intrinsic evolution of stars with the chemodynamical ...

Breaking up the Magellanic Group into the Milky Way Halo: Understanding the Local Dwarf Galaxy Properties [PDF]
arXiv, 2008 We use a numerical simulation of a loose group containing a Milky Way halo to probe that in the hierarchical universe the Magellanic Clouds and some dSphs have been accreted into the Milky Way halo from a late infalling group of dwarfs. Our simulations show that the tidal breakup of the Magellanic group occurs before it enters the Milky Way halo.

From the Outside Looking in: What can Milky Way Analogues Tell us About the Star Formation Rate of Our Own Galaxy? [PDF]
, 2019 The Milky Way has been described as an anaemic spiral, but is its star formation rate (SFR) unusually low when compared to its peers? To answer this question, we define a sample of Milky Way Analogues (MWAs) based on stringent cuts on the best literature estimates of non-transient structural features for the Milky Way.
