The Milky Way and the Local Group (MWLG)
Project
Milky Way and Nearby Galaxies
The general aim of the project is to research the structure, evolutionary history and formation of galaxies through the study of their resolved stellar...
Milky Way rotation curve from proper motions of red clump giants
Aims: We derive the stellar rotation curve of the Galaxy in the range of Galactocentric radii of R = 4-16 kpc at different vertical heights from the Galactic...
We investigated the infrared (IR) dust emission from PN IC 418, using a detailed model controlled by a previous determination of the stellar properties and the...
Modeling the ionizing spectra of H II regions: individual stars versus stellar ensembles
Aims: We study how IMF sampling affects the ionizing flux and emission line spectra of low mass stellar clusters. Methods: We performed 2 × 106 Monte Carlo...
Modelling star counts in the Monoceros stream and the Galactic anti-centre
Context. There is a continuing debate as to the form of the outer disc of the Milky Way galaxy, which has important implications for understanding the Galaxy's...
MONOS: Multiplicity Of Northern O-type Spectroscopic systems. I. Project description and spectral classifications and visual multiplicity of previously known objects
Context. Multiplicity in massive stars is key to understanding the chemical and dynamical evolution of galaxies. Among massive stars, those of O type play a...
MONOS: Multiplicity Of Northern O-type Spectroscopic systems. II. Orbit review and analysis for 35 single-lined spectroscopic binary systems and candidates
Context. Massive stars are a key element for understanding the chemical and dynamical evolution of galaxies. Stellar evolution is conditioned by many factors...
Morpho-kinematic properties of field S0 bulges in the CALIFA survey
We study a sample of 28 S0 galaxies extracted from the integral field spectroscopic (IFS) survey Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Area. We combine an accurate...
This project consists of two parts, each differentiated but both complementary: morphology and dynamics. Detailed study of the morphology of the Milky Way...
