Weighing the Galactic disk in sub-regions of the solar neighbourhood using Gaia DR2
Axel Widmark, Pablo Fernández de Salas, Giacomo Monari
We infer the gravitational potential of the Galactic disk by analysing the phase-space densities of 120 stellar samples in 40 spatially separate sub-regions of the solar neighbourh…

Measuring the Matter Density of the Galactic Disk Using Stellar Streams
Axel Widmark, Khyati Malhan, Pablo F. de Salas +1
We present a novel method for determining the total matter surface density of the Galactic disk by analysing the kinematics of a dynamically cold stellar stream that passes through…
