TL;DR
This paper reviews recent findings from large spectroscopic surveys like RAVE on the structure, origin, and substructures of the Milky Way's thin and thick disks within hierarchical galaxy formation models.
Contribution
It summarizes recent observational results from RAVE on the Galactic disks' structure, origin, and substructures, providing insights into their formation.
Findings
Detection of substructure and asymmetries in the Galactic disks
Insights into the origin of thin and thick disks
Implications for hierarchical galaxy formation models
Abstract
The ongoing large spectroscopic surveys of the Milky Way such as SEGUE and RAVE have enabled us to take a fresh look at the structure of the Galactic thin and thick disks, and how their structure fits within the framework of structure formation via hierarchical clustering. In this article I will summarize some recent results mainly based in the RAVE survey with respect to the structure of the Galactic disks, their possible origin as well as indications of substructure and asymmetries.
