The third Gaia Data Release, which includes BP/RP spectra for 219 million sources, has opened a new window in the exploration of the chemical history and evolution of the Milky...

We introduce the Southern Stellar Stream Spectroscopy Survey (S^5^), an on-going program to map the kinematics and chemistry of stellar streams in the southern hemisphere. The...

Using a widely used stellar-population synthesis model, we study the possibility of using pairs of AB system colours to break the well-known stellar age-metallicity degeneracy...

The study of the Milky Way is living a golden era thanks to the enormous high-quality datasets delivered by Gaia, and space asteroseismic and ground-based spectroscopic surveys....

We present stellar age determinations for 4661 red giant branch stars in the APO-K2 catalog, derived using mass estimates from K2 asteroseismology from the K2 Galactic...

We have assembled 560 recent measurements from the literature of distances of Galactic globular clusters and found revised distance estimates for 154 of the 157 clusters in the...

This data set consists of evolutionary sequences from the Zero Age Horizontal Branch (ZAHB) to the point where log L/Lsun reaches 2.25 on the lower AGB. These calculations have...

In this catalog, metallicities, distances, components of space velocities and parameters of osculating orbits are calculated for 1065 F2-K5 dwarfs with UBV photometric data,...

The Extended Hipparcos Compilation (XHIP) cross-references the New Hipparcos Reduction (HIP2, Cat. I/311) with relatable data from a broad survey of presently available sources....

We have created specialized target lists for radial velocity surveys that are biased toward stars that (1) possess planets and (2) are easiest to observe with current detection...

The Kepler Mission, NASA Discovery mission #10, is specifically designed to survey our region of the Milky Way galaxy to discover hundreds of Earth-size and smaller planets in...

(no description available) Cone search capability for table V/117A/newcat (Main catalogue recalibrated data (2007))

Radial velocities are given for some 900 stars within 15{deg} of the North Galactic Pole, including almost all such stars classified G5 or latter in the Henry-Draper Catalogue...

Based on published data, we have compiled a catalogue of fundamental astrophysical parameters for 593 open clusters of the Galaxy. In particular, the catalogue provides the...

Contact binaries consist of two strongly interacting component stars where they are filling their critical Roche lobes and sharing a common envelope. Most of them are...

A number of spectroscopic surveys have been carried out or are planned to study the origin of the Milky Way. Their exploitation requires reliable automated methods and softwares...

We derive transformation equations between GALEX and UBV colours by using the reliable data of 556 stars. We present two sets of equations: as a function of (only) luminosity...

The catalogue for nearby stars' metallicities has been compiled. The catalogue contains 558 values obtained from photometric UBV data

In this study, photometric metallicity and absolute magnitude calibrations were derived using F-G spectral type main-sequence stars in the Solar neighbourhood with precise...

The oldest stars in the Milky Way (born in the first few billion years) are expected to have a high density in the inner few kpc, spatially overlapping with the Galactic bulge....
