224. Strings, snakes and pearls

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: A curious and unexpected discovery are the thousands of filamentary stellar structures in the solar neighbourhood, referred to as strings (or snakes), and multiple orbitally coherent clusters referred to as pearls. The strings appear to be coherent in terms of their spatial and kinematic distribution, and age.
