In this study, we follow up our recent paper (Monteiro et al.) and present a homogeneous
sample of fundamental parameters of open clusters in our Galaxy, entirely based on Gaia …

Reliable fundamental parameters of open clusters (OCs) such as distance, age, and
extinction are key to our understanding of Galactic structure and stellar evolution. In this …

Gaia DR2 provides unprecedented precision in measurements of the distance and
kinematics of stars in the solar neighborhood. Through applying unsupervised machine …

The spiral structure in the solar neighborhood is an important issue in astronomy. In the past
few years, there has been significant progress in observation. The distances for a large …

Context. Open clusters (OCs) trace the evolution of the Galactic disc with great accuracy.
Gaia and large ground-based spectroscopic surveys make it possible to determine their …

We present the results of the hierarchical clustering analysis of the Gaia DR2 data to search
for clusters, comoving groups, and other stellar structures. The current paper builds on the …

We reconstructed the star formation history of the Sco-Cen OB association using a novel
high-resolution age map of the region. We developed an approach to produce robust ages …

The structure and evolution of the spiral arms of our Milky Way are basic but long-standing
questions in astronomy. In particular, the lifetime of spiral arms is still a puzzle and has not …

We report the discovery of 34 new open clusters and candidates as a result of a systematic
search carried out in 200 adjacent fields of 1× 1 deg2 area projected towards the Galactic …

In an effort to improve our understanding of the spiral arm structure of the Milky Way, we use
classical Cepheids (CCs) to increase the number of young tracers on the far side of the …
