A Deep Learning Biomimetic Milky Way Compass [PDF]
Biomimetics (Basel)Moving in straight lines is a behaviour that enables organisms to search for food, move away from threats, and ultimately seek suitable environments in which to survive and reproduce. This study explores a vision-based technique for detecting a change in

THE SKELETON OF THE MILKY WAY [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2015 Recently, Goodman et al. (2014) argued that the very long, very thin infrared dark cloud "Nessie" lies directly in the Galactic mid-plane and runs along the Scutum-Centaurus arm in position-position-velocity ($p-p-v$) space as traced by lower density $\rm {CO}$ and higher density ${\rm NH}_3$ gas.

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 2004 We present a new estimate of the mass of the Milky Way based on the escape velocity of a sample of distant stars, about 12 kpc from the Galactic centre and about 5 kpc from the plane of the Galaxy. Our sample is very different from previous escape-velocity studies, being compiled from an all-object spectroscopic survey of a region of sky.

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 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 ...

Chemodynamical Analysis of Metal-rich High-eccentricity Stars in the Milky Way's Disk
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We present a chemodynamical analysis of 11,562 metal-rich, high-eccentricity halo-like main-sequence stars, which have been referred to as the Splash or Splashed Disk, selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber ...

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We continue our series of papers on phase-space distributions of stars in the Milky Way based on photometrically derived metallicities and Gaia astrometry, with a focus on the halo−disk interface in the local volume.

The Astronomical Journal, 2023 We investigate the kinematic-chemical distribution of red-giant branch stars from the LAMOST survey crossed matched with Gaia DR2 proper motions, and present time tagging for the well-known ridge structures (diagonal distributions for V _R in the R , V ...

Overview of the DESI Milky Way Survey
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 We describe the Milky Way Survey (MWS) that will be undertaken with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on the Mayall 4 m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory.
