Our Galaxy, the Milky Way, is the only giant galaxy that we are able to characterize the physical properties for billions of individual stellar bodies in high dimensions (3D position, 3D motion, detailed chemical abundances, age, etc.), it thus serves as an irreplaceable astrophysical laboratory for understanding the matter constitutes, formation and evolution history of galaxies and near-field cosmology. Galactic archaeology aims to reconstruct the origin, assembly and evolution history of our Galaxy through detailed studies of chemical and kinematic fingerprint of the stellar fossils that spread the entire age range of the universe. Achieving this ambitious goal relies on acquiring the fundamental properties and physical parameters of large samples of stars, which is the core scientific goal of several ongoing and upcoming large-scale sky surveys.
In this talk, I will introduce our efforts on conducting Galactic archaeology studies using data from LAMOST -- the largest ongoing stellar spectroscopic surveys, and Gaia -- a large and full-sky precision astrometric survey. With big data from these surveys, we are able to precisely determine the ages, chemical abundances, and orbits for millions of stars, thus to uncover mysteries of the Galactic formation history, particularly the history at the early epoch, during the first few Gyrs.
