We aim at a detailed description of the kinematic properties of the old, (several Gyrs) late-type CO-absorption star population among the Galactic centre (GC) cluster stars. We applied AO-assisted, near-infrared imaging and integral-field…
For the past 150 years, the prevailing view of the local Interstellar Medium (ISM) was based on a peculiarity known as the Gould's Belt, an expanding ring of young stars, gas, and dust, tilted about 20$^\circ$ to the Galactic plane. Still,…
The predictions from a Galactic Structure and Kinematic model code are compared to the color counts and absolute proper-motions derived from the Southern Proper-Motion survey covering more than 700 $\deg^2$ toward the South Galactic Pole in…
We analyzed the space velocities of Gould Belt stars younger than 125 Myr located at heliocentric distances <650 pc. We determined the rotation and expansion parameters of the Gould Belt by assuming the existence of a single kinematic…
To study the peculiarities of the Galactic spiral density wave, we have analyzed the space velocities of Galactic Cepheids with proper motions from the Hipparcos catalog and line-of-sight velocities from various sources. First, based on the…
A catalog of Cepheid variables is used to probe the kinematics of the Galactic disk. Radial velocities are measured for eight distant Cepheids toward l = 300; these new Cepheids provide a particularly good constraint on the distance to the…
The mass distribution of the Galactic disk is constructed from the terminal velocity curve and the mass discrepancy-acceleration relation. Mass models numerically quantifying the detailed surface density profiles are tabulated. For $R_0 =…

We present a method, based on the kinematic analysis of the Galactic disk stars, to clarify whether the internal motions of the stellar system in spiral arms follow those expected in the density wave theory. The method relies on the…
The sample of classic Cepheids with known distances and line-of-sight velocities is supplemented by the proper motions from the Gaia DR1 catalog. From spatial velocities of 260 stars the components of the peculiar Solar velocity:…
We consider two previously studied samples of OB stars with different distance scales. The first one consists of 98 massive spectroscopic binary stars with photometric distances, and the second one consists on 140 OB stars with the…
We have tested the method of determining the solar Galactocentric distance R_0 and Galactic rotation velocity $V_0$ modified by Sofue et al. using near-solar-circle objects. The motion of objects relative to the local standard of rest has…
To estimate the peculiar velocity of the Sun with respect to the Local Standard of Rest (LSR), we used young objects in the Solar neighborhood with distance measurement errors within 10%-15%. These objects were the nearest Hipparcos stars…
We have studied a sample of more than 25 000 young stars with proper motions and trigonometric parallaxes from the Gaia DR2 catalogue. The relative errors of their parallaxes do not exceed 10\%. The selection of stars belonging to active…

We have redetermined kinematic parameters of the Gould Belt using currently available data on the motion of nearby young (log t < 7.91) open clusters, OB associations, and moving stellar groups. Our modeling shows that the residual…
The kinematic parameters of the Gould Belt are redetermined using modern data on the motion of nearby young ($\log t<7.91$) open clusters, OB-associations and moving stellar groups. The modelling carried out shows that the residual…
We present a first large-scale kinematic map of $\sim$50,000 young OB stars ($T_{\rm eff} \geq 10,000$ K), based on BOSS spectroscopy from the Milky Way Mapper OB program in the ongoing Sloan Digital Sky Survey V (SDSS-V). Using…
Spatial velocities of all currently known 28 masers having trigonometric parallaxes, proper motion and line-of-site velocities are reanalyzed using Bottlinger's equations. These masers are associated with 25 active star-forming regions and…
