Rotation Curve of the Milky Way and the Dark Matter Density [PDF]
Galaxies, 2020 We review the current status of the study of rotation curve (RC) of the Milky Way, and present a unified RC from the Galactic Center to the galacto-centric distance of about 100 kpc.

Kraken reveals itself – the merger history of the Milky Way reconstructed with the E-MOSAICS simulations [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 Globular clusters (GCs) formed when the Milky Way experienced a phase of rapid assembly. We use the wealth of information contained in the Galactic GC population to quantify the properties of the satellite galaxies from which the Milky Way assembled ...

Dense Gas in the Milky Way [PDF]
, 1996 We present a study of dense gas emission in the Milky Way in order to serve as a basis for comparison with extragalactic results. This study combines new observations of HCN, CS, and CO in individual GMCs and in the Milky Way plane with published studies

Tango for three: Sagittarius, LMC, and the Milky Way [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 We assemble a catalogue of candidate Sagittarius stream members with 5D and 6D phase-space information, using astrometric data from Gaia DR2, distances estimated from RR Lyrae stars, and line-of-sight velocities from various spectroscopic surveys.

The connection between the host halo and the satellite galaxies of the Milky Way [PDF]
, 2016 Many properties of the Milky Way's dark matter halo, including its mass assembly history, concentration, and subhalo population, remain poorly constrained.

TRIGONOMETRIC PARALLAXES OF HIGH MASS STAR FORMING REGIONS: THE STRUCTURE AND KINEMATICS OF THE MILKY WAY [PDF]
, 2014 Over 100 trigonometric parallaxes and proper motions for masers associated with young, high-mass stars have been measured with the Bar and Spiral Structure Legacy Survey, a Very Long Baseline Array key science project, the European VLBI Network, and the ...

A synthetic view on structure and evolution of the Milky Way [PDF]
, 2003 Since the Hipparcos mission and recent large scale surveys in the optical and the near-infrared, new constraints have been obtained on the structure and evolution history of the Milky Way.

Ultrafaint Dwarfs in a Milky Way Context: Introducing the Mint Condition DC Justice League Simulations [PDF]
, 2020 We present results from the “Mint” resolution DC Justice League suite of Milky Way–like zoom-in cosmological simulations, which extend our study of nearby galaxies down into the ultrafaint dwarf (UFD) regime for the first time.

Reverse engineering the Milky Way [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2020 The ages, metallicities, alpha-elements, and integrals of motion of globular clusters (GCs) accreted by the Milky Way from disrupted satellites remain largely unchanged over time. Here we have used these conserved properties in combination to assign 76

How Common are the Magellanic Clouds? [PDF]
, 2011 We introduce a probabilistic approach to the problem of counting dwarf satellites around host galaxies in databases with limited redshift information.
