Made-to-measure galaxy models - III Modelling with Milky Way observations

R. J. Long, Shude Mao, Juntai Shen +1

We demonstrate how the Syer & Tremaine made-to-measure method of stellar dynamical modelling can be adapted to model a rotating galactic bar. We validate our made-to-measure change…

The Vertical X-shaped Structure in the Milky Way: Evidence from a Simple Boxy Bulge Model

Zhao-Yu Li, Juntai Shen

A vertical X-shaped structure was recently reported in the Galactic bulge. Here we present evidence of a similar X-shaped structure in the Shen et al. (2010) bar/boxy bulge model t…
