A Swing of the Pendulum: The Chemodynamics of the Local Stellar Halo Indicate Contributions from Several Radial Merger Events
T Donlon, HJ Newberg - The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
We find that the chemical abundances and dynamics of APOGEE and GALAH stars in the
local stellar halo are inconsistent with a scenario in which the inner halo is primarily …
