Strong Dark Matter Self-interactions Diversify Halo Populations within and surrounding the Milky Way [PDF]

Astrophysical Journal, 2022
We perform a high-resolution cosmological zoom-in simulation of a Milky Way (MW)–like system, which includes a realistic Large Magellanic Cloud analog, using a large differential elastic dark matter self-interaction cross section that reaches ≈100 cm2 g ...

Formation and Evolution of the Milky Way [PDF]

Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
To paint with broad brush strokes, the spectrum of Galactic formation models has as extrema what may be termed the “fast and smooth” and the “slow and lumpy” scenarios. Appropriate or not, to ascribe as champions of these views the works of, respectively, Eggen et al.

Secular Evolution in the Milky Way [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2012
AbstractI will review the secular evolution of the Milky Way disk and bulge with particular attention to the bulge and disk. Evidence for the importance of stellar migration in the Solar neighbourhood will be presented. The upcoming Gaia satellite will lead to a wealth of new data with which to explore these effects.

Chemodynamical evolution of the Milky Way disk [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2013
In the first paper of this series, we present a new approach for studying the chemo-dynamical evolution in disk galaxies, which consists of fusing disk chemical evolution models with compatible numerical simulations of galactic disks. This method avoids known star formation and chemical enrichment problems encountered in simulations.

Stellar Bars in Isolated Gas-rich Spiral Galaxies Do Not Slow Down

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Elongated bar-like features are ubiquitous in galaxies, occurring at the centers of approximately two-thirds of spiral disks in the nearby Universe. Due to gravitational interactions between the bar and the other components of galaxies, it is expected ...

Disentangling Stellar Age Estimates from Galactic Chemodynamical Evolution

The Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Stellar ages are key for determining the formation history of the Milky Way, but are difficult to measure precisely. Furthermore, methods that use chemical abundances to infer ages may entangle the intrinsic evolution of stars with the chemodynamical ...

4MOST Consortium Survey 3: Milky Way Disc and Bulge Low-Resolution Survey (4MIDABLE-LR)

, 2019
The mechanisms of the formation and evolution of the Milky Way are encoded in the orbits, chemistry and ages of its stars. With the 4MOST MIlky way Disk And BuLgE Low-Resolution Survey (4MIDABLE-LR) we aim to study kinematic and chemical substructures in

The Orbital Ellipticity of Satellite Galaxies and the Mass of the Milky Way [PDF]

, 2013
We use simulations of Milky Way-sized dark matter haloes from the Aquarius Project to investigate the orbits of substructure haloes likely, according to a semi-analytic galaxy formation model, to host luminous satellites.

Structure and Evolution of the Milky Way Galaxy [PDF]

International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1989
AbstractThe combination of chemical abundance, kinematic, and age data for stars near the sun provides important information about the early evolution of the Galaxy. We review available data, with some new analysis, to show that the sum of all available information strongly suggests that the extreme population II subdwarf system formed during a period ...

The evolution of carbon and oxygen in the bulge and disk of the Milky Way [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2009
The evolution of C and O abundances in the Milky Way can impose strong constraints on stellar nucleosynthesis and help understanding the formation and evolution of our Galaxy. The aim is to review the measured C and O abundances in the disk and bulge of the Galaxy and compare them with model predictions.
