Abstract: |
The stellar populations of the stellar halo and of the thick disk of the Milky Way reveal much about the merging history that our Galaxy, a typical large disk galaxy, has experienced. Our current understanding, described here, implies a rather quiet evolution for the disk, back to redshifts of order 2. |
