An Inward-moving and Asymmetric Velocity Wave Detected in LAMOST-Gaia

The phase space, as coded by kinematic parameters and chemical abundances, is crucial for understanding the formation of the Galactic disk. Using red giant stars from the Galactic thin disk with [Fe/H] > − 0.8 and low- α ratios identified in LAMOST-Gaia, we detect numerous ridges and undulations...
