摘要:

我们使用第二次盖亚数据发布与桑德斯和达斯(2018)的目录相结合,在相空间和相对年龄中剖析银河系盘。我们确认并报告了大角星下方存在着多个以低方位角速度和角动量运动的速度运动群,它们在方位角速度上被$\sim~18-20\,\rm{km s^{-1}}$有规律地分开。这些特征在十多年前就被预测存在,从银河系的反应到圆盘中发生相混合的扰动。这些结构看起来比它们的相空间环境稍微年轻,反对银河系外的起源。我们还确定在相对年龄的许多经典的脊在平面上的方位角速度与银河半径,传统上与共振功能。这些脊也比它们的相空间环境年轻,这与最近最先进的银河系类星系宇宙流体动力学模拟的预测一致。我们研究的动态年轻和年老的恒星盘人口的共振从一个大酒吧的分析模型,这是显着的,定性再现数据中看到的趋势的响应。我们的研究结果加强了这样一个想法,即银河系盘目前正在形成的内部和外部扰动,而绝对等时线年龄必须非常小心,探索恒星年龄盘的动力学结构,特别是与未来的星震数据,将提供更强的约束比金属丰度/丰度的趋势。

英文摘要:

We use the second Gaia data release in combination with the catalog of Sanders & Das (2018) to dissect the Milky Way disc in phase-space and relative ages. We confirm and report the existence of multiple velocity moving groups at low azimuthal velocities and angular momenta, below Arcturus, regularly separated by $\sim~18-20\,\rm{km s^{-1}}$ in azimuthal velocity. Such features were predicted to exist more than ten years ago from the reaction of the Milky Way to a perturbation in the disc undergoing phase-mixing. These structures appear slightly younger than their phase-space surroundings, arguing against an extra-galactic origin. We also identify in relative age many of the classical ridges in the plane of azimuthal velocity vs. Galactocentric radius, traditionally associated with resonance features. These ridges are also younger than their phase-space surroundings in accordance with predictions from recent state-of-the-art cosmological hydrodynamical simulations of Milky Way-like galaxies. We study the response of dynamically young and old stellar disc populations to resonances from an analytic model of a large bar, which, remarkably, qualitatively reproduces the trends seen in the data. Our results re-inforce the idea that the Galactic disc is currently being shaped by both internal and external perturbations, and that, while absolute isochrone ages have to be taken with great care, exploring the dynamical structure of the disc in stellar ages, especially with future asteroseismic data, will provide much stronger constraints than metallicity/abundance trends alone.
