Paola Re Fiorentin, Mario G. Lattanzi, Alessandro Spagna

摘要:

这项研究是基于盖亚和APOGEE最近发布的高质量天体测量和光谱数据。我们选择$58\,882$薄盘和厚盘红巨星,在银心(圆柱)距离范围$5 < R < 13$ ~kpc和$|z| < 3$ ~kpc,其中完整的化学运动学信息是可用的。径向化学梯度,$\partial \rm{[M/H]} / \partial \rm{R}$,和旋转速度-金属丰度的相关性,$\partial V_ϕ/ \partial \rm{[M/H]}$,重新推导出坚定地揭示,厚盘速度-金属丰度的相关性保持其积极的$8$ ~千秒差距的范围内探索。这一观测结果是重要的,因为它设置了实验约束最近的理论研究的形成和演化的银河系盘和宇宙学模型的星系形成。

英文摘要:

This study is based on high quality astrometric and spectroscopic data from the most recent releases by Gaia and APOGEE. We select $58\,882$ thin and thick disk red giants, in the Galactocentric (cylindrical) distance range $5 < R < 13$~kpc and within $|z| < 3$~kpc, for which full chemo-kinematical information is available. Radial chemical gradients, $\partial \rm{[M/H]} / \partial \rm{R}$, and rotational velocity-metallicity correlations, $\partial V_ϕ/ \partial \rm{[M/H]}$, are re-derived firmly uncovering that the thick disk velocity-metallicity correlation maintains its positiveness over the $8$~kpc range explored. This observational result is important as it sets experimental constraints on recent theoretical studies on the formation and evolution of the Milky Way disk and on cosmological models of Galaxy formation.
