Kinematic structures found with Gaia DR1/TGAS and RAVE in the Solar neighbourhood
read the original abstract
With the much enlarged stellar sample of 55831 stars and much increased precision in distances, proper motions, provided by Gaia DR1 TGAS we have shown with the help of the wavelet analysis that the velocity distribution of stars in the Solar neighbourhood contains more kinematic structures than previously known. We detect 19 kinematic structures between scales 3-16 km/s at the 3sigma confidence level. Among them we identified well-known groups (such as Hercules, Sirius, Coma Berenices, Pleiades, and Wolf 630). We confirmed recently detected groups (such as Antoja12 and Bobylev16). In addition we report here about a new kinematic structure at (U,V)=(37, 8) km/s. Another three new groups are tentatively detected, but require confirmation.
