In the light of several recent developments we revisit the phenomenon of galactic stellar disk truncations. Even 25 years since the first paper on outer breaks...
Stellar distribution in the Galactic disc from NIR color-magnitude diagrams
We analyze the stellar distribution in the Galactic disc via NIR color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs). Extinction measurements in the K band are also extracted from...

Stellar Feedback and the Evolution of Young Embedded Star Clusters
In this contribution we present the first results of an theoretical attempt to address the question of the evacuation time-scale but also the star-formation...
Stellar Kinematics and Chemical Abundances at the Thick-Disk/Halo Interface
The old stellar populations of the Milky Way carry the signature of their formation environment and dynamical history in their kinematics and chemical...
