Orbital Torus Imaging: Acceleration, Density, and Dark Matter in the Galactic Disk Measured with Element Abundance Gradients
Under the assumption of a simple and time-invariant gravitational potential, many Galactic dynamics techniques infer the milky Way’s mass and dark matter distributions from stellar kinematic observations. These methods typically rely on parameterized potential models of the Galaxy and must take into...
