Local Kinematics and the Local Standard of Rest
We re-examine the stellar kinematics of the Solar neighbourhood in terms of the velocity of the Sun with respect to the local standard of rest. We show that the classical determination of its component V_sun in the direction of Galactic rotation via Stroemberg's relation is undermined by the me...
