This project explores the formation history of the Milky Way by analyzing the interactions between its stellar halo and disc. It employs advanced simulations to investigate the effects of past accretion events on the Galaxy's structure and evolution.
The second data release of the Gaia satellite has revealed much complexity in the structure and kinematics of stars in the Milky Way than previously appreciated.
In the disc, Gaia has shown that our Galaxy is still enduring the effects of a collision that set millions of stars moving like ripples on a pond.
In the stellar halo, the data uncovered a large single debris structure pointing to a massive accretion event 10 billion years ago, at a time when the disc was in its infancy.
