The ESO-Max Planck photometric and spectroscopic survey in the south: EMPhaSSiS
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 EMPhaSSiS is a photometric and spectroscopic survey of the disk of the Milky Way. The survey covers 33 fields in the 3rd quadrant of the Milky Way and probes every ten degrees in Galactic Longitude between l = 180∘ - 280∘ and at Galactic Latitudes of b =

Disk Galaxy Evolution: From the Milky Way to High-Redshift Disks [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science, 2003 We develop a detailed model of the Milky Way (a ``prototypical'' disk galaxy) and extend it to other disks with the help of some simple scaling relations, obtained in the framework of Cold Dark Matter models. This phenomenological (``hybrid'') approach to the study of disk galaxy evolution allows us to reproduce successfully a large number of observed ...

Microlensing Events in Five Years of Photometry from the Zwicky Transient Facility
The Astrophysical JournalMicrolensing has a unique advantage for detecting dark objects in the Milky Way, such as free-floating planets, neutron stars, and stellar-mass black holes.

The Milky Way and its gas: Cold fountains and accretion
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 The Milky Way is acquiring gas from infalling high-velocity clouds. The material enters a disk-halo interface that in many places is populated with HI clouds that have been ejected from the disk through processes linked to star formation. The Smith Cloud

Radial Wave in the Galactic Disk: New Clues to Discriminate Different Perturbations
The Astrophysical JournalDecoding the key dynamical processes that shape the Galactic disk structure is crucial for reconstructing the Milky Way’s evolution history. The second Gaia data release unveils a novel wave pattern in the L _Z −〈 V _R 〉 space, but its formation ...

Asymmetric Mean Metallicity Distribution of the Milky Way’s Disk [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2019 Abstract I present the mean metallicity distribution of stars in the Milky Way based on photometry from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. I utilize an empirically calibrated set of stellar isochrones developed in previous work to estimate the metallicities of individual stars to a precision of 0.2 dex for reasonably bright stars across the ...

The Astrophysical JournalWe present a comprehensive study of the kinematic properties of the different Galactic disk populations, as defined by the chemical abundance ratios and stellar ages, across a large disk volume (4.5 ≤ R ≤ 15.0 kpc and ∣ Z ∣ ≤ 3.0 kpc), by using the ...
