Abundance Gradients and the Formation of the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2001
In this paper we adopt a chemical evolution model, which is an improved version of the Chiappini, Matteucci and Gratton (1997) model, assuming two main accretion episodes for the formation of the Galaxy. The present model takes into account in more detail than previously the halo density distribution and explores the effects of a threshold density in ...

The simulation of molecular clouds formation in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2012
Using 3D hydrodynamic calculations we simulate formation of molecular clouds in the Galaxy. The simulations take into account molecular hydrogen chemical kinetics, cooling and heating processes.

DISSIPATIONLESS FORMATION AND EVOLUTION OF THE MILKY WAY NUCLEAR STAR CLUSTER [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2012
Abridged: In one widely discussed model for the formation of nuclear star clusters (NSCs), massive globular clusters spiral into the center of a galaxy and merge to form the nucleus. It is now known that at least some NSCs coexist with supermassive black

Chemodynamical Analysis of Metal-rich High-eccentricity Stars in the Milky Way's Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present a chemodynamical analysis of 11,562 metal-rich, high-eccentricity halo-like main-sequence stars, which have been referred to as the Splash or Splashed Disk, selected from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey and Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber ...

Star formation law in the Milky Way [PDF]

open access: yesPublications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2017
Abstract The Schmidt law (SF law) in the Milky Way was investigated using 3D distribution maps of H ii regions and H i and molecular (H2) gases with spatial resolutions of ∼1 kpc in the Galactic plane and a few tens of pc in the vertical direction. H ii regions were shown to be distributed in a star-forming (SF) disk with nearly constant

STAR FORMATION RELATIONS IN THE MILKY WAY [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2016
ABSTRACT The relations between star formation and properties of molecular clouds (MCs) are studied based on a sample of star-forming regions in the Galactic Plane. Sources were selected by having radio recombination lines to provide identification of associated MCs and dense clumps. Radio continuum emission and mid-infrared emission were

ON THE FORMATION OF THE DISK OF SATELLITES OF THE MILKY WAY: SIMULATION OF THE COLLISION OF TWO GALAXIES

open access: greenMomento, 2014
At present there is some evidence showing that the satellite galaxies of the Milky Way might be distributed on a disc structure, known as the disc of satellites.
