We develop an approach for fitting the results of modeling of wriggling radial large scale iron pattern along the Galactic disk, derived over young (high massive) Cepheids, with the metallicity distribution, obtained using low mass long living dwarf stars in the close solar vicinity. For this, at the step of computing of the theoretical abundance distribution over low mass stars in the solar vicinity we propose to redefine the initial mass function so as the resulting theoretical stellar distribution over masses would be close to the distribution in the observed sample. By means of the above algorithm and subsequent corrections of the theoretical metallicity distribution function, described in literature, we have achieved fairly well agreement of the theoretical and observed metallicity distribution functions for low mass stars in the local solar vicinity.

A convenient representation of the structure of the large-scale galactic magnetic field is required for the interpretation of polarization data in the sub-mm and radio ranges, in both the Milky Way and external galaxies. We develop a simple and flexi
ble approach to construct parametrised models of the large-scale magnetic field of the Milky Way and other disc galaxies, based on physically justifiable models of magnetic field structure. The resulting models are designed to be optimised against available observational data. Representations for the large-scale magnetic fields in the flared disc and spherical halo of a disc galaxy were obtained in the form of series expansions whose coefficients can be calculated from observable or theoretically known galactic properties. The functional basis for the expansions is derived as eigenfunctions of the mean-field dynamo equation or of the vectorial magnetic diffusion equation. The solutions presented are axially symmetric but the approach can be extended straightforwardly to non-axisymmetric cases. The magnetic fields are solenoidal by construction, can be helical, and are parametrised in terms of observable properties of the host object, such as the rotation curve and the shape of the gaseous disc. The magnetic field in the disc can have a prescribed number of field reversals at any specified radii. Both the disc and halo magnetic fields can separately have either dipolar or quadrupolar symmetry. The model is implemented as a publicly available software package GalMag which allows, in particular, the computation of the synchrotron emission and Faraday rotation produced by the models magnetic field. The model can be used in interpretations of observations of magnetic fields in the Milky Way and other spiral galaxies, in particular as a prior in Bayesian analyses. (Abridged.)
The study of radial metallicity gradients in the disc of the Milky Way is a powerful tool to understand the mechanisms that have been acting in the formation and evolution of the Galactic disc. In this proceeding, I will put the eye on some problems
that should be carefully addressed to obtain precise determinations of the metallicity gradients.
In this paper we test 8 models of the free electron distribution in the Milky Way that have been published previously, and we introduce 4 additional models that explore the parameter space of possible models further. These new models consist of a simple exponential thick disk model, and updat
We estimate the 3D density profile of the Galactic dark matter (DM) halo within $r lesssim 30$ kpc from the Galactic centre by using the astrometric data for halo RR Lyrae stars from Gaia DR2. We model both the stellar halo distribution function and
the Galactic potential, fully taking into account the survey selection function, the observational errors, and the missing line-of-sight velocity data for RR Lyrae stars. With a Bayesian MCMC method, we infer the model parameters, including the density flattening of the DM halo $q$, which is assumed to be constant as a function of radius. We find that 99% of the posterior distribution of $q$ is located at $q>0.963$, which strongly disfavours a flattened DM halo. We cannot draw any conclusions as to whether the Galactic DM halo at $r lesssim 30$ kpc is prolate, because we restrict ourselves to axisymmetric oblate halo models with $qleq1$. Our result is inconsistent with predictions from cosmological hydrodynamical simulations that advocate more oblate ($langle{q}rangle sim0.8 pm 0.15$) DM halos within $sim 15%$ of the virial radius for Milky-Way-sized galaxies. An alternative possibility, based on our validation tests with a cosmological simulation, is that the true value $q$ of the Galactic halo could be consistent with cosmological simulations but that disequilibrium in the Milky Way potential is inflating our measurement of $q$ by 0.1-0.2. As a by-product of our analysis, our model constrains the DM density in the Solar neighbourhood to be $rho_{mathrm{DM},odot} = (9.01^{+0.18}_{-0.20})times10^{-3}M_odot mathrm{pc}^{-3} = 0.342^{+0.007}_{-0.007}$ $;mathrm{GeV} mathrm{cm}^{-3}$.
This study is based on high quality astrometric and spectroscopic data from the most recent releases by Gaia and APOGEE. We select $58,882$ thin and thick disk red giants, in the Galactocentric (cylindrical) distance range $5 < R < 13$~kpc and within
$|z| < 3$~kpc, for which full chemo-kinematical information is available. Radial chemical gradients, $partial rm{[M/H]} / partial rm{R}$, and rotational velocity-metallicity correlations, $partial V_phi / partial rm{[M/H]}$, are re-derived firmly uncovering that the thick disk velocity-metallicity correlation maintains its positiveness over the $8$~kpc range explored. This observational result is important as it sets experimental constraints on recent theoretical studies on the formation and evolution of the Milky Way disk and on cosmological models of Galaxy formation.
