Previous studies have found that the elemental abundances of a star correlate directly with its age and metallicity. Using this knowledge, we derive ages for a sample of 250,000 stars taken from GALAH DR3 using only their overall metallicity and chemical abundances. Stellar ages are estimated via the machine learning algorithm $XGBoost$, using main sequence turnoff stars with precise ages as our input training set. We find that the stellar ages for the bulk of the GALAH DR3 sample are accurate to 1-2 Gyr using this method. With these ages, we replicate many recent results on the age-kinematic trends of the nearby disk, including the age-velocity dispersion relationship of the solar neighborhood and the larger global velocity dispersion relations of the disk found using $Gaia$ and GALAH. The fact that chemical abundances alone can be used to determine a reliable age for a star have profound implications for the future study of the Galaxy as well as upcoming spectroscopic surveys. These results show that the chemical abundance variation at a given birth radius is quite small, and imply that strong chemical tagging of stars directly to birth clusters may prove difficult with our current elemental abundance precision. Our results highlight the need of spectroscopic surveys to deliver precision abundances for as many nucleosynthetic production sites as possible in order to estimate reliable ages for stars directly from their chemical abundances. Applying the methods outlined in this paper opens a new door into studies of the kinematic structure and evolution of the disk, as ages may potentially be estimated for a large fraction of stars in existing spectroscopic surveys. This would yield a sample of millions of stars with reliable age determinations, and allow precise constraints to be put on various kinematic processes in the disk, such as the efficiency and timescales of radial migration.
Milky Way's eccentric constituents with $Gaia$, APOGEE $\&$ GALAH
我们报告的结果的本地恒星晕的化学动力学空间跨越的丰度测量从APOGEE DR 17和GALAH DR 3的无监督分解。在我们的高斯混合模型中,只有四个独立的组成部分在太阳附近占主导地位,三个以前已知的$Aurora$,$Splash$和盖亚香肠/土卫二(GS/E)和一个新的,$Eos$。这四个星系中只有一个是吸积的,即GS/E,因此支持了早期的说法,即GS/E是银河系恒星晕的主要祖先。我们表明,$Aurora$是完全符合所谓的赫拉克勒斯合并的化学性质。在我们的分析中,没有预定义的化学选择削减应用,$Aurora$跨越了广泛的[Al/Fe]与金属丰度相关性指示快速化学富集在一个大规模的星系,年轻的银河系。由于其高平均值[Al/Fe],被称为$Eos$的新晕组分被归类为$in situ$。$Eos$表现出强烈的演化作为[Fe/H]的函数,在那里它从最接近GS/E的最低[Fe/H]变化到与银河系低-$α$人口在其最高[Fe/H]无法区分。我们推测,至少有一部分银河系外薄盘是在被GS/E污染的气体中开始演化的,而$Eos$就是这一过程的证据。

$R$-process enhancements of Gaia-Enceladus in GALAH DR3
The dominant site of production of $r$ -process elements remains unclear despite recent observations of a neutron star merger. Observational constraints on the properties of the sites can be obtained by comparing $r$ -process abundances in different environments. The recent Gaia data releases and large samples from high-resolution optical spectroscopic surveys are enabling us to compare $r$ -process element abundances between stars formed in an accreted dwarf galaxy, Gaia-Enceladus, and those formed in the Milky Way. We aim to understand the origin of $r$ -process elements in Gaia-Enceladus. W…
