◇Retro-grade rotation:

  • 70<VΦ<-40 km/s

◇[Fe/H] ≅ -2.2 ◇Spherical: axial ratio of ~0.9

Key questions for 2020s

  • Substructures characterized by spatial, kinematics and chemical distribution out to ~ 15kpc by

main sequence ➡ Cosmological simulations predict substructures are even more numerous beyond the present limit

  • Disk-halo interface to put constraints on the impact of Sagittarius merger to the formation of the

Milky Way ➡ Lack of spectroscopic and astrometric measurements limit quantitative prediction from theory, Properties of the Sagittarius and their contribution to the field halo population

  • Mass, shape, and lumpiness of the dark matter halo through stellar streams ➡ Velocity

measurements (spectroscopy+astrometry) are essential to constrain dark matter halo properties.

  • The chemical characterization of the stellar halo ➡ Understanding chemical enrichtment history of

the building blocks of the stellar halo

  • Search for chemically pristine stars ➡ Deeper photometric surveys will provide constraints on

low-mass first (Population III) stars (e.g.,Ishiyama et al. 2015), comparison with supernova nucleosynthesis

Summary

  • In the last decade, wide-field surveys have revolutionized our view of the outskirt of the

Milky Way

  • Discovery and panoramic mapping of substructures in the stellar halo and the outer disk
  • The implications of the substructures on galaxy formation, dark matter and chemical

abundances are limited by

  • Shallow depth and sky coverage (especially the regions close to the disk plane)
  • Lack of astrometric and spectroscopic measurements of velocity and chemistry
  • Wide-field instruments on Subaru (HSC, PFS, ULTIMATE), combined with astrometric space

missions (Euclid, WFIRST) will be powerful and unique in 2020
