The structure and evolution of the Milky Way
Currently active research projects:
Chemical and dynamical
history of stars in the solar neighbourhood
- Improved age determinations for disk stars
- The local age-metallicity relation
- The G-dwarf problem
- Heating mechanisms in the disk
(J. Andersen, M. C. Andersen,
B. Nordström, E. H.
Olsen)
Vertical and horizontal
structure of the disk
(J. Andersen, H. Jønch-Sørensen, J. Knude, B.
Nordström)
Nucleosynthesis
in the Big Bang and in the protogalaxy
- Abundances in extremely metal-poor stars
(B. Nordström)
Local interstellar
medium
- Distribution, magnetic field and pressure
- Non-homogeneous interstellar clouds
(J. Knude)
Stellar and dynamical
evolution in Open Clusters
(J. Andersen, M. I. Andersen,
