Based on the second Gaia data (Gaia DR2) and spectroscopy from the LAMOST Data Release 5, we defined the high-velocity (HiVel) stars sample as those stars with $v_{mathrm{gc}} > 0.85 v_{mathrm{esc}}$, and derived the final sample of 24 HiVel stars with stellar astrometric parameters and radial velocities. Most of the HiVel stars are metal-poor and $alpha$-enhanced. In order to further explore the origin of these HiVel stars, we traced the backwards orbits of each HiVel star in the Galactic potential to derive probability parameters which are used to classify these HiVel stars. Of these, 5 stars are from the tidal debris of disrupted dwarf galaxy and 19 stars are runaway-star candidates which originate from the stellar disk.

With the photometric data from the SDSS survey, the spectroscopic data from the SDSS/SEGUE and the LAMOST surveys, and the astrometric data from the Gaia DR2, we have identified 71 highly-probable member stars of the GD-1 cold stellar stream spread a
long almost its entire length (i.e. from 126 to 203 degree in Right Ascension). With the accurate spectroscopic (i.e. metallicity and line-of-sight velocity) and astrometric (i.e. proper motions) information, the position-velocity diagrams, i.e. $phi_{1}$-$mu_{alpha}$, $phi_{1}$-$mu_{delta}$ and $phi_{1}$-${v_{rm gsr}}$, of the GD-1 stream are well mapped. The stream has an average metallicity [Fe/H] $= -1.95 pm 0.23$. The rich information of member stars of the stream now available allow one not only to model its origin, but also to place strong constraints on the mass distribution and the gravitational potential of the Milky Way.
We determined the chemical and kinematic properties of the Galactic thin and thick disk using a sample of 307,246 A/F/G/K-type giant stars from the LAMOST spectroscopic survey and Gaia DR2 survey. Our study found that the thick disk globally exhibits
no metallicity radial gradient, but the inner disk ($R le 8$ kpc) and the outer disk ($R>8$ kpc) have different gradients when they are studied separately. The thin disk also shows two different metallicity radial gradients for the inner disk and the outer disk, and has steep metallicity vertical gradient of d[Fe/H]/d$|z|$ $=-0.12pm0.0007$ dex kpc$^{-1}$, but it becomes flat when it is measured at increasing radial distance, while the metallicity radial gradient becomes weaker with increasing vertical distance. Adopting a galaxy potential model, we derived the orbital eccentricity of sample stars and found a downtrend of average eccentricity with increasing metallicity for the thick disk. The variation of the rotation velocity with the metallicity shows a positive gradient for the thick disk stars and a negative one for the thin disk stars. Comparisons of our observed results with models of disk formation suggest that radial migration could have influenced the chemical evolution of the thin disk. The formation of the thick disk could be affected by more than one processes: the accretion model could play an indispensable role, while other formation mechanisms, such as the radial migration or heating scenario model could also have a contribution.
The perturbation mechanism of the Galactic disk has puzzled us for a long time. The imprints from perturbations provide important diagnostics on the disk formation and evolution. Here we try to constrain when the vertical perturbation took place in t
he disk by tracking the phase mixing history. Firstly, we clearly depict the spiral structures of radial ($v_R$) and azimuthal ($v_{phi}$) velocities in the phase space of the vertical position and velocity ($z$-$v_z$) with 723,871 LAMOST-Gaia combined stars. Then, we investigate the variation of the spirals with stellar age ($tau$) by dividing the sample into seven stellar age bins. Finally, we find that the spirals explicitly exist in all the bins, even in the bin of $tau<0.5$,Gyr, except for the bin of $tau>6.0$,Gyr. This constrains the vertical perturbation probably starting no later than 0.5,Gyr ago. But we can not rule out whether the young stars ($tau<0.5$,Gyr) inherit the oscillations from the perturbed ISM where they born from. This study provides some important observational evidences to understand the disk perturbation mechanisms, even the formation and evolution of our Galaxy.
We report that LAMOST-HVS1 is a massive hyper-runaway subgiant star with mass of 8.3 Msun and super-Solar metallicity, ejected from the inner stellar disk of the Milky Way $sim$ 33 Myr ago with the intrinsic ejection velocity of $568^{+19}_{-17}$ km/
s (corrected for the streaming motion of the disk), based on the proper motion data from Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) and high-resolution spectroscopy. The extremely large ejection velocity indicates that this star was not ejected by the supernova explosion of the binary companion. Rather, it was probably ejected by a 3- or 4-body dynamical interaction with more massive objects in a high-density environment. Such a high-density environment may be attained at the core region of a young massive cluster with mass of $gtrsim 10^4$ Msun. The ejection agent that took part in the ejection of LAMOST-HVS1 may well be an intermediate mass black hole ($gtrsim$ 100 Msun), a very massive star ($gtrsim$ 100 Msun), or multiple ordinary massive stars ($gtrsim$ 30 Msun). Based on the flight time and the ejection location of LAMOST-HVS1, we argue that its ejection agent or its natal star cluster is currently located near the Norma spiral arm. The natal star cluster of LAMOST-HVS1 may be an undiscovered young massive cluster near the Norma spiral arm.
Using a sample of nearly 140,000 primary red clump stars selected from the LAMOST and $Gaia$ surveys, we have identified a large sample of young [$alpha$/Fe]-enhanced stars with stellar ages younger than 6.0 Gyr and [$alpha$/Fe] ratios greater than 0
.15 dex. The stellar ages and [$alpha$/Fe] ratios are measured from LAMOST spectra, using a machine learning method trained with common stars in the LAMOST-APOGEE fields (for [$alpha$/Fe]) and in the LAMOST-$Kepler$ fields (for stellar age). The existence of these young [$alpha$/Fe]-enhanced stars is not expected from the classical Galactic chemical evolution models. To explore their possible origins, we have analyzed the spatial distribution, and the chemical and kinematic properties of those stars and compared the results with those of the chemically thin and thick disk populations. We find that those young [$alpha$/Fe]-enhanced stars have distributions in number density, metallicity, [C/N] abundance ratio, velocity dispersion and orbital eccentricity that are essentially the same as those of the chemically thick disk population. Our results clearly show those so-called young [$alpha$/Fe]-enhanced stars are not really young but $genuinely$ $old$. Although other alternative explanations can not be fully ruled out, our results suggest that the most possible origin of these old stars is the result of stellar mergers or mass transfer.
