The Gaia mission has revolutionized our view of the Milky Way and its satellite citizens. The
field of Galactic Archaeology has been piecing together the formation and evolution of the …

We review the recent theoretical and observational developments concerning the interaction
of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) with the Milky Way and its neighbourhood. An …

Abstract We describe the Milky Way Survey (MWS) that will be undertaken with the Dark
Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) on the Mayall 4 m telescope at the Kitt Peak …

Our position inside the Galactic disc has previously prevented us from establishing an
accurate rotation curve (RC). The advent of Gaia and its third data release (Gaia DR3) made …

We present a 6D map of the Orphan–Chenab (OC) stream by combining the data from
Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopic Survey (S 5) and Gaia. We reconstruct the proper …

Stellar streams are excellent probes of the underlying gravitational potential in which they
evolve. In this work, we fit dynamical models to five streams in the Southern Galactic …

Modern Galactic surveys have revealed an ancient merger that dominates the stellar halo of
our galaxy (Gaia–Sausage–Enceladus, GSE). Using chemical abundances and kinematics …

We propose a scenario in which the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) is on its second
passage around the Milky Way. Using a series of tailored N-body simulations, we …

We analyse the merger and assembly histories of Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31)-
like galaxies to quantify how, and how often, disc galaxies of this mass can survive recent …

It has recently been shown that the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) has a substantial effect
on the Milky Way's stellar halo and stellar streams. Here, we explore how deformations of …
