Mapping the Milky Way Galaxy with LISA [PDF]
, 2012 Gravitational wave detectors in the mHz band (such as the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna, or LISA) will observe thousands of compact binaries in the galaxy which can be used to better understand the structure of the Milky Way.

Candidate Members of the VMP/EMP Disk System of the Galaxy from the SkyMapper and SAGES Surveys
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesPhotometric stellar surveys now cover a large fraction of the sky, probe to fainter magnitudes than large-scale spectroscopic surveys, and are relatively free from the target selection biases often associated with such studies.

Additional Evidence for the Existence of a Primordial Disk System
The Astrophysical JournalThe origin of very metal-poor (VMP; [Fe/H] ≤ −2.0) stars on planar orbits has been the subject of great attention since their first discovery. However, prior to the release of the Gaia BP/RP (XP) spectra and large photometric samples such as SkyMapper ...

A Computer Vision Milky Way Compass
, 2023 The Milky Way is used by nocturnal flying and walking insects for maintaining heading while navigating. In this study, we have explored the feasibility of the method for machine vision systems on autonomous vehicles by measuring the visual features and ...

Icarus Revisited: An Ancient, Metal-poor Accreted Stellar Stream in the Disk of the Milky Way
The Astrophysical JournalThe search for accreted satellites in the Galactic disk is a challenging task, to which Gaia plays a crucial role in synergy with ground-based spectroscopic surveys. In 2021, P. Re Fiorentin et al.

A 3D Chemodynamical Census of Inner-Galaxy Metal-poor Giants to [Fe/H] ∼ −3.5
The Astrophysical Journal LettersThe earliest assembly of the Milky Way remains poorly understood, yet the spatial, chemical, and kinematic properties of its most metal-poor stars provide a unique fossil record of its proto-Galaxy phase.

Terraforming the Milky Way galaxy
, 2023 After terraforming the entire Milky Way galaxy, create habitats in two phases: 1.Create a habitat in the entire Solar System only for humans to live in. 2.Create a habitat in the remaining (terraformed) galaxy for all the non-human creatures resurrected on Earth and transport them using mega spaceships.

What Is Missing from the Local Stellar Halo?
The Astrophysical JournalThe Milky Way’s stellar halo, which extends to >100 kpc, encodes the evolutionary history of our Galaxy. However, most studies of the halo to date have been limited to within a few kiloparsecs of the Sun.

The Stellar Disk Structure Revealed by the Mono-age Populations of the LAMOST Red Clump Star Sample
The Astronomical JournalUnderstanding the structure of the Galactic disk is crucial for understanding the formation and evolutionary history of the Milky Way. This study examines the structure of the Galactic disk by analyzing a sample of 138,667 primary red clump (RC) stars ...
