A Vertically Orientated Dark Matter Halo Marks a Flip of the Galactic Disk
Ling Zhu, Runsheng Cai, Xi Kang +5
Unveiling the 3D shape of the Milky Way's dark-matter halo is critical to understanding its formation history. We created an innovative dynamical model with minimal assumptions on…

Uncover 3D Dark Matter Distribution of the Milky Way by an Empirical Triaxial Orbit-Superposition Model: Method Validation
Ling Zhu, Xiang-Xiang Xue, Shude Mao +2
We introduce a novel dynamical model, named empirical triaxial orbit-superposition model, for the Milky Way halo. This model relies on minimal physical assumptions that the system…

The Shape and Mass of the Galactic Dark Matter Halo from the Axisymmetric Jeans Model
Lan Zhang, Xiang-Xiang Xue, Ling Zhu +8
We explore the density profile, shape, and virial mass of the Milky Way's dark matter halo using K giants (KG) from LAMOST and SDSS/SEGUE, as well as blue horizontal branch (BHB) s…
