EVOLUTION OF MOLECULAR AND ATOMIC GAS PHASES IN THE MILKY WAY [PDF]
We analyze radial and azimuthal variations of the phase balance between the molecular and atomic interstellar medium (ISM) in the Milky Way (MW) using archival CO(J = 1-0) and HI 21 cm data.

The Milky Way and the evolution of disk galaxies
We present a phenomenological approach to the study of disk galaxy evolution, based on i) a detailed modelling of the Milky Way (used as a prototype disk galaxy) and ii) an extension of the model to other disks through some simple scaling relations, obtained in the framework of Cold Dark matter models.

The AMBRE Project: Constraining the lithium evolution in the Milky Way [PDF]
Context. The chemical evolution of lithium in the Milky Way represents a major problem in modern astrophysics. Indeed, lithium is, on the one hand, easily destroyed in stellar interiors, and, on the other hand, produced at some specific stellar ...

On the early chemical evolution of the Milky Way
A few topics concerning the early chemical evolution of the Milky Way are critically discussed. In particular, it is argued that: 1) Observed abundance patterns of extremely metal poor stars (of Pop. II) do not constrain the mass range of the first generation (Pop.

Milky Way analogs (MWAs) have long been studied by astronomers to place our Galaxy within an extragalactic context. With the power of cosmological simulations, we are now able to not only characterize MWAs today, but also watch as they evolve through ...

Temporal Evolution of the Radial Distribution of Milky Way Satellite Galaxies [PDF]
The Milky Way (MW) is surrounded by dozens of satellite galaxies, with six-dimensional (6D) phase-space information measured for over 80% of this population.

Milky Way globular clusters on cosmological timescales. I. Evolution of the orbital parameters in time-varying potentials [PDF]
Context. Recent observational data show that the Milky Way (MW) galaxy contains about 170 globular clusters (GCs). A fraction of them is likely formed in dwarf galaxies accreted onto the MW in the past, while the remaining of clusters are formed in-situ.

Atomic Hydrogen in the Milky Way: A Stepping Stone in the Evolution of Galaxies [PDF]
Atomic hydrogen (Hi) is a critical stepping stone in the gas evolution cycle of the interstellar medium (ISM) of the Milky Way. Hi traces both the cold, premolecular state before star formation and the warm, diffuse ISM before and after star formation ...
