摘要:

我们提出的盖亚DR 2数据的层次聚类分析的结果,以寻找集群,共同移动的群体,和其他恒星结构。目前的论文建立在以前工作的样本上,将其从1 kpc扩展到3 kpc,将识别结构的数量增加到8292。为了帮助分析人口属性,我们开发了一个名为Auriga的神经网络,根据输入的光度学和单个成员的光度来鲁棒地估计恒星群的年龄,灭绝和距离。我们应用御夫座推导出的性质,不仅在本文中发现的结构,而且以前确定的疏散星团。通过这项工作,我们研究的时间结构的螺旋臂。具体来说,我们发现人马臂在过去的1亿年中移动了>500 pc,而英仙座臂在过去的2500万年中经历了恒星形成活动的相对平静。我们证实了从以前的论文中的螺旋臂的瞬态性质的研究结果,过渡的时间尺度为几亿年。最后,我们发现了一个特殊的~1 Gyr古老的恒星流,似乎是日心说。它的起源尚不清楚。

英文摘要:

We present the results of the hierarchical clustering analysis of the Gaia DR2 data to search for clusters, co-moving groups, and other stellar structures. The current paper builds on the sample from the previous work, extending it in distance from 1 kpc to 3 kpc, increasing the number of identified structures up to 8292. To aid in the analysis of the population properties, we developed a neural network called Auriga to robustly estimate the age, extinction, and distance of a stellar group based on the input photometry and parallaxes of the individual members. We apply Auriga to derive the properties of not only the structures found in this paper, but also previously identified open clusters. Through this work, we examine the temporal structure of the spiral arms. Specifically, we find that the Sagittarius arm has moved by >500 pc in the last 100 Myr, and the Perseus arm has been experiencing a relative lull in star formation activity over the last 25 Myr. We confirm the findings from the previous paper on the transient nature of the spiral arms, with the timescale of transition of a few 100 Myr. Finally, we find a peculiar ~1 Gyr old stream of stars that appears to be heliocentric. It is unclear what is the origin of it.
