Early Coformation of the Milky Way’s Thin and Thick Disks at Redshift z > 2

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Milky Way serves as a template for understanding the formation and evolution of late-type massive disk galaxies since we can obtain detailed chemical and kinematic information for large samples of individual stars. However, the early formation of the

Accurate, Precise, and Physically Self-consistent Ages and Metallicities for 400,000 Solar Neighborhood Subgiant Branch Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Age is the most difficult fundamental stellar parameter to infer for isolated stars. While isochrone-based ages are in general imprecise for both main-sequence dwarfs and red giants, precise isochrone-based ages can be obtained for stars on the subgiant ...

Four-hundred Very Metal-poor Stars Studied with LAMOST and Subaru. III. Dynamically Tagged Groups and Chemodynamical Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Very metal-poor (VMP) stars record the signatures of early accreted galaxies, making them essential tools for unraveling the early stages of Galaxy formation.

Stellar Paternity Tests: Matching High-latitude B Stars to the Open Clusters of their Birth

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
OB stars generally form in open clusters within the Milky Way’s thin disk, so when they are found at high Galactic latitudes, it is thought that they were ejected from their birth clusters during the past few tens of millions of years.

The Low-α Splash Population in the Milky Way

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The Milky Way metal-rich halo-like component, also known as the Splash, consists of old (age > 10 Gyr), metal-rich ([Fe/H] > −0.7), high- α stars, i.e., thick-disk-like chemistry, on halo-like orbits (eccentricity > 0.6).

Formation of the Two-armed Phase Spiral from Multiple External Perturbations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Recent studies using the Gaia DR3 data have revealed a two-armed phase spiral in the Z – V _Z phase space in the inner disk. In this study, we present new features of the two-armed phase spiral revealed by the Gaia data and a new mechanism to explain ...

Joint Modeling of GD-1 and C-19 as Old Streams

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
DESI observational data for the GD-1 and C-19 streams are compared to stream simulations in an evolving multihalo potential of a Milky Way–like galaxy based on a cosmological Milky Way–like simulation.
