Observational identification of a low-α Splash population in APOGEE DR17 and GASTRO simulations showing that clumpy proto-disk scattering, but not a major merger alone, heats old thin-disk stars to form both high- and low-α Splash components.
First multiband P-L relations for Cepheids in S-PLUS system with reddening maps of the Magellanic Clouds from single-epoch photometry.
Bar-induced migration can move ω Cen from the GSE phase-space region, but requires Ω_b ≲ 26 km s^{-1} kpc^{-1}, challenging consensus on the bar speed.
The Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger occurred 11.2 ± 0.1 Gyr ago, coinciding with the formation of a group of globular clusters and potentially leaving ω Centauri as its remnant, while placing disk formation at z ≳ 4.
300S stellar stream exhibits three density peaks, smooth width variations, a possible 4.7 degree gap, and a kink modeled as resulting from Large Magellanic Cloud interaction across its full known footprint.
Literature compilation of 1032 carbon abundances identifies a new M_V--CEMP fraction relation in dwarf galaxies and infers that the metal-poor Milky Way halo assembled from both UFD-like and intermediate-mass systems.
A lithium chemical evolution model for the GSE galaxy matches survey data showing Spite-like and eRGB plateaus at low metallicity with a hint of reduced nova contributions.
The Sagittarius dwarf progenitor had a metallicity gradient of roughly -0.3 dex per kpc prior to infall.
Simulations show that observed rotation in 13.5-Gyr-old alpha-rich stars constrains the Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger to mass ratios below 1:4, with interaction and starburst times both near 11 Gyr.

Bar-induced migration of $\omega$ Centauri away from Gaia Sausage-Enceladus
