Fitting orbits to tidal streams with proper motions
The Galaxy's stellar halo seems to be a tangle of disrupted systems that have been tidally stretched out into streams. Each stream approximately delineates an orbit in the Galactic force-field. In the first paper in this series we showed that all six phase-space coordinates of each point on an...
