field of Galactic Archaeology has been piecing together the formation and evolution of the …

Stellar streams in the Gaia era

A Bonaca, AM Price-Whelan - New Astronomy Reviews, 2024 - Elsevier
The hierarchical model of galaxy formation predicts that the Milky Way halo is populated by
tidal debris of dwarf galaxies and globular clusters. Due to long dynamical times, debris from …

The chemical characterization of halo substructure in the Milky Way based on APOGEE

D Horta, RP Schiavon, JT Mackereth… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Galactic haloes in a Λ-CDM universe are predicted to host today a swarm of debris resulting
from cannibalized dwarf galaxies. The chemodynamical information recorded in their stellar …

The recurrent impact of the Sagittarius dwarf on the star formation history of the Milky Way

T Ruiz-Lara, C Gallart, EJ Bernard, S Cassisi - Nature Astronomy, 2020 - nature.com
Satellites orbiting disk galaxies can induce phase space features such as spirality, vertical
heating and phase-mixing in their disks. Such features have also been observed in our own …

In this work, we present two new∼ 109 particle self-consistent simulations of the merger of a
Sagittarius-like dwarf galaxy with a Milky Way (MW)-like disc galaxy. One model is a violent …

The Pristine survey – XVI. The metallicity of 26 stellar streams around the Milky Way detected with the STREAMFINDER in Gaia EDR3

NF Martin, RA Ibata, E Starkenburg… - Monthly Notices of …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
