Scientific paper
At 140 years of the discovery of the moving groups, these stellar streams are emerging as powerful tools to constrain the models for the spiral arms and the Galactic bar in the Gaia era. From the kinematic-age-metallicity analysis in the solar neighbourhood it is now well established that some of these kinematic structures have a dynamical origin, different from the classical cluster disruption hypothesis. Test particle simulations allow us to definitively establish that these local structures can be created by the dynamical resonances of material spiral arms and not exclusively by the Galactic bar. First studies to evaluate the capabilities of the future Gaia data to detect and characterize moving groups at 2-6 kpc from the solar neighborhood are discussed.
