We combine high-resolution spectroscopic data from APOGEE-2 survey Data Release 16
(DR16) with broad-band photometric data from several sources as well as parallaxes from …

Aims. We aim to demonstrate the scientific potential of the Gaia Early Data Release 3
(EDR3) for the study of different aspects of the Milky Way structure and evolution and we …

We investigate the inner regions of the Milky Way using data from APOGEE and Gaia EDR3.
Our inner Galactic sample has more than 26 500 stars within| X Gal|< 5 kpc,| Y Gal|< 3.5 …

We use the astrometric and photometric data from Gaia Data Release 2 and line-of-sight
velocities from various other surveys to study the 3D structure and kinematics of the …

ABSTRACT Gaia Data Release 2 revealed that the Milky Way contains significant
indications of departures from equilibrium in the form of asymmetric features in the phase …

The nuclear disk is a dense stellar structure at the centre of the Milky Way, with a radius of~
150 pc (ref.). It has been a place of intense star formation in the past several tens of millions …

We study the late-time evolution of the central regions of two Milky Way (MW)-like
simulations of galaxies formed in a cosmological context, one hosting a fast bar and the …

In a cosmological setting, the disk of a galaxy is expected to continuously experience
gravitational torques and perturbations from a variety of sources, which can cause the disk to …

It is now clear that the stars in the Solar neighbourhood display large-scale coherent vertical
breathing motions. At the same time, Milky Way-like galaxies experience tidal interactions …

The ongoing merger of the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf galaxy with the Milky Way is believed to
strongly affect the dynamics of the Milky Way's disk. We present a suite of 13 N-body …
