This report summarises progress made in estimating the local density of dark matter (ρ
DM,⊙), a quantity that is especially important for dark matter direct detection experiments …

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 …

Context. The second Gaia data release (Gaia DR2) contains high-precision positions,
parallaxes, and proper motions for 1.3 billion sources as well as line-of-sight velocities for …

Context. With the most recent Gaia data release, the number of sources with complete 6D
phase space information (position and velocity) has increased to well over 33 million stars …

Abstract The Large sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) general
survey is a spectroscopic survey that will eventually cover approximately half of the celestial …

We analyse an N-body simulation of the interaction of the Milky Way (MW) with a Sagittarius-
like dSph (Sgr), looking for signatures which may be attributed to its orbital history in the …

The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST), also known as
the Guoshoujing Telescope, is a major national scientific facility for astronomical research …

We use the second data releases of the European Space Agency Gaia astrometric survey
and the high-resolution Galactic Archaeology with HERMES (GALAH) spectroscopic survey …

We present N-body simulations of a Sagittarius (Sgr)-like dwarf spheroidal galaxy that
follows its orbit about the Milky Way (MW) since its first crossing of the Galaxy's virial radius …

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 …
