  1. 11. The origin and chemical evolution of iron-peak and neutron-capture elements in the Milky Way disk

    Author : Chiara Battistini; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stars: abundances; Stars: solar-type; Galaxy: disk; Galaxy: evolution; Galaxy: solar neighbourhood;

    Abstract : All the elements heavier than Li are created during stellar evolution. Even if our knowledge of this process is good, many questions still remain. READ MORE

  2. 12. Distribution of O, B and M stars derived from a spectral survey of a southern Milky Way region

    Author : Anita Sundman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  3. 13. Bird's eye view of star formation in the local Milky Way - How perspective changes with scale, time and viewing angle

    Author : Andri Spilker; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; interstellar medium; star formation;

    Abstract : A crucial aspect in interpreting the scaling relations relevant for star formation—the Kennicutt-Schmidt relation and the Larson relations—is how those relations depend on size-scale. This is especially so when comparing relations derived from unresolved, extragalactic data to those derived from resolved, Galactic data. READ MORE

  4. 14. Tycho-Gaia and beyond: Combining data for precision astrometry

    Author : Daniel Michalik; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; proper motions; parallaxes; positions; map of the Milky Way; joint solution; Gaia; detection of exo-planets; astrometry; catalogue combination; Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution; Hundred Thousand Proper Motion project; Fysicumarkivet A:2015:Michalik;

    Abstract : Astrometry aims at producing a three-dimensional map of positions and motions of stars and other celestial bodies in a consistent coordinate system covering the whole sky. This is best done from space, which provides a way of scanning the entire sky by a single instrument in a thermally stable environment. READ MORE

  5. 15. Stellar kinematics in surveys and simulations

    Author : Daniel Mikkola; Astronomi - Genomgår omorganisation; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Galactic dynamics; stellar dynamics; simulations; Gaia; Galactic dynamics; Stellar kinematics; Numerical simulations; Statistical methods; Solar neighborhood;

    Abstract : We study stellar motions in the Milky Way with N-body simulations and large astrometric samples from ESA's Gaia mission. We identify two kinematic populations for white dwarfs in the Solar neighbourhood. We also investigate the accreted halo and reveal two new structures. READ MORE
