SUMMARY:Dynamical Structure in the Galactic disk -- a new Decade of Ga
 lactic Discovery\, Astronomy Colloquium\, Alice Quillen\, Univeristy o
 f Rochester\, Astronomy & Astrophysics
DESCRIPTION:Soon GAIA observations will increase our knowledge of the 
 positions and velocities of millions of stars in the our Galaxy.<br>
\
 nI will explore how star formation\, spiral structure\, perturbations 
 and remnants from dwarf galaxies\, and the Galactic bar cause substruc
 ture in local stellar velocity distributions.<br>
\nI will discuss cha
 llenges in better measuring the shape and stellar distribution of the 
 Milky Way\, understanding dynamical processes in the disk and its form
 ation and past evolution.
