A Galactic Self-portrait: Density Structure and Integrated Properties of the Milky Way Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The evolutionary history of the Milky Way disk is imprinted in the ages, positions, and chemical compositions of individual stars. In this study, we derive the intrinsic density distribution of different stellar populations using the final data release ...

Overview of the DESI Milky Way Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We describe the Milky Way Survey (MWS) that will be undertaken with the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on the Mayall 4 m telescope at the Kitt Peak National Observatory.

Milky Way type galaxies in a ΛCDM cosmology [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009
We analyse a sample of 52,000 Milky Way (MW) type galaxies drawn from the publicly available galaxy catalogue of the Millennium Simulation with the aim of studying statistically the differences and similarities of their properties in comparison to our Galaxy.

A Circuit of Mechanically Regulated Transcription Factors Balances Regenerative and Fibrotic Memory of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 37, 3 July 2026.
Producing MSCs on rigid culture substrates induces a scar‐making phenotype, jeapordizing therapeutic success. ‘Tissue‐soft’ surfaces prevent MSC fibrogenesis and preserve regenerative traits. An epigenetic network, driven by HOXA11 and SALL1, maintains ‘soft memory’ by keeping chromatin open in relaxed MSCs, promoting anti‐fibrotic programs.

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.

The Milky Way Galaxy as a strong gravitational lens [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007
We study the gravitational lensing effects of spiral galaxies by taking a model of the Milky Way and computing its lensing properties. The model is composed of a spherical Hernquist bulge, a Miyamoto-Nagai disc and an isothermal halo. As a strong lens, a spiral galaxy like the Milky Way can give rise to four different imaging geometries.

Feasibility Study for Application of Digitized Henize Mt. Wilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \boldsymbol{\alpha} $$ Survey Low‐Dispersive Spectral Plates for Searches for Anomalous and Highly Redshifted Objects

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 6, July 2026.
ABSTRACT The goal of this study is to confirm the feasibility of the use of digitized low dispersive MtWilson Michigan Southern Sky Hα$$ \alpha $$ survey astronomical photographic plates for modern astrophysical research. The detection of highly redshifted objects, such as early galaxies and quasars, is fundamental to understanding the universe's ...

The Imprint of Clump Formation at High Redshift. II. The Chemistry of the Bulge

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
In Paper I, we showed that clumps in high-redshift galaxies, having a high star formation rate density (Σ _SFR ), produce disks with two tracks in the [Fe/H]–[ α /Fe] chemical space, similar to that of the Milky Way’s (MW’s) thin+thick disks.

Harnessing Generative AI Within Human‐Aligned Constraints: Exploring Control Strategies and Existential Considerations

open access: yesEngineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.
We propose the Powerful‐but‐Limited Generative AI theorem, demonstrating that embedding human‐inspired constraints, such as fixed utility functions and neuro‐symbolic submission layers, ensures generative AI remains controllable by preventing self‐improvement beyond designer intent.

TRILEGAL, a TRIdimensional modeL of thE GALaxy: Status and FutureRed Giants as Probes of the Structure and Evolution of the Milky Way

open access: yes, 2012
We briefly describe TRILEGAL, a TRIdimensional modeL of thE GALaxy, and its more recent developments. Particularly relevant is the recent inclusion of a kinematical module to the code, and the present efforts to provide a more solid calibration of Milky ...
