Building an Acceleration Ladder with Tidal Streams and Pulsar Timing

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
We analyse stellar streams in action-angle coordinates combined with recent local direct acceleration measurements to provide joint constraints on the potential of our galaxy.

The Baryons in the Milky Way Satellites [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Volume 419, Issue 4, pp. 3304-3318. (MNRAS Homepa, 2011
We investigate the formation and evolution of satellite galaxies using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations of a Milky Way(MW)-like system, focussing on the best resolved examples, analogous to the classical MW satellites. Comparing with a pure dark matter simulation, we find that the condensation of baryons has had a relatively minor ...

The centre of the Milky Way

open access: yesNature, 1993
Direct photometric evidence has established that the central bulge of our Galaxy (the Milky Way) is actually a stellar bar. The dynamics of the bar will drive material into the Galaxy's centre but recent X-ray observations suggest that much of the inflowing gas is driven out again in a high-pressure galactic wind.

The Rapid Onset of Stellar Bars in the Baryon-dominated Centers of Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Recent observations of high-redshift galactic disks ( z ≈ 1–3) show a strong negative trend in the dark-matter (DM) fraction f _DM with increasing baryon surface density.

The Observable Properties of Galaxy Accretion Events in Milky Way–like Galaxies in the FIRE-2 Cosmological Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In the Λ-Cold Dark Matter model of the universe, galaxies form in part through accreting satellite systems. Previous works have built an understanding of the signatures of these processes contained within galactic stellar halos.

Mass extinction and the structure of the milky way [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We use the most up-to-date Milky Way model and solar orbit data in order to test the hypothesis that the Sun's galactic spiral arm crossings cause mass extinction events on Earth. To do this, we created a new model of the Milky Way's spiral arms

A Computer Vision Milky Way Compass

open access: yes, 2023
The Milky Way is used by nocturnal flying and walking insects for maintaining heading while navigating. In this study, we have explored the feasibility of the method for machine vision systems on autonomous vehicles by measuring the visual features and ...

The R-Process Alliance: Chemodynamically Tagged Groups. II. An Extended Sample of Halo r-process-enhanced Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Orbital characteristics based on Gaia Early Data Release 3 astrometric parameters are analyzed for ∼1700 r -process-enhanced (RPE; [Eu/Fe] > +0.3) metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] ≤ −0.8) compiled from the R -Process Alliance, the GALactic Archaeology with ...
