We have derived the star formation history of the Milky Way disk over the last 2 Gyr from the age distribution diagram of a large sample of open clusters comprising more than 580 objects. By interpreting the age distribution diagram using numerical results from an extensive library of N -body calcul
## Abstract The kinematics and elemental abundances of resolved stars in the nearby Universe can be used to infer conditions at high redshift, trace how galaxies evolve and constrain the nature of dark matter. This approach is complementary to direct study of systems at high redshift, but I will sh
## Abstract Adopting known data on positions and distances, we make use of analytical geometry and look for the plane that minimizes the distances of all galaxies to it. A planar distribution is found. We apply Hamilton's principle of minimum action to investigate the dynamics of the two major syst
