Chemistry and dynamics of newly discovered metal-poor stars

Event Start:

Event End:

Event Information:

The analysis of Gaia DR2 data has revealed previously unknown accretion events of dwarf galaxies through detailed chemo-dynamical analyses of stars in the Milky Way (i.e., Gaia-Enceladus, Helmi et al. 2018; Gaia-Sausage, Belokurov et al. 2018; Gaia-Sausage, Myeong et al. 2019), and the unexpected result that many very metal-poor stars have nearly circular planar orbits (Sestito et al. 2019).
