Kinematical Analysis of Substructure in the Southern Periphery of the Large Magellanic Cloud

We report the first 3-D kinematical measurements of stars in the direction of several recently discovered substructures in the southern periphery of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) using a combination of Gaia proper motions and radial velocities …

Galactic Warp Through the Lenses of Gaia Data Release 2 and the APOGEE Survey

Previous studies of Milky Way stars have revealed that our Galaxy has a warped stellar disk, however, most of these studies have necessarily been confined to relatively nearby stars due to the challenge of deriving accurate stellar distances beyond …

Exploring the Galactic Warp Through Asymmetries in the Kinematics of the Galactic Disk

Previous studies of Milky Way stars have revealed that our Galaxy has a warped stellar disk, however, most of these studies have necessarily been confined to relatively nearby stars due to the challenge of deriving accurate stellar distances beyond …
