Chemodynamical history of the galactic bulge
B Barbuy, C Chiappini, O Gerhard - Annual Review of …, 2018 - annualreviews.org
The Galactic Bulge can uniquely be studied from large samples of individual stars and is
therefore of prime importance for understanding the stellar population structure of bulges in …

Disk formation versus disk accretion—what powers tidal disruption events?
ABSTRACT A tidal disruption event (TDE) takes place when a star passes near enough to a
massive black hole to be disrupted. About half the star's matter is given elliptical trajectories …

The Milky Way bar and bulge revealed by APOGEE and Gaia EDR3
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 …

Estimating stellar birth radii and the time evolution of Milky Way's ISM metallicity gradient
I Minchev, F Anders, A Recio-Blanco… - Monthly Notices of …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
We present a semi-empirical, largely model-independent approach for estimating Galactic
birth radii, r birth, for Milky Way disc stars. The technique relies on the justifiable assumption …
