Modeling the vertical distribution of the Milky Way's flat subsystem objects

Igor' I. Nikiforov, Vadim A. Usik, Angelina V. Veselova

This paper is an initial stage of consideration of the general problem of joint modeling of the vertical structure of a Galactic flat subsystem and the average surface of the disk…

Three-component Stackel model of the Galaxy based on the rotation curve from maser data

A. O. Gromov, I. I. Nikiforov

A three-component Stackel model of the Galaxy, including the bulge, disk, and halo, is constructed. Parameter estimates of the potential are obtained as a result of fitting the mod…

On the possible orbital motion of Sgr A* in the smooth potential of the Milky Way

Igor' I. Nikiforov, Angelina V. Veselova

The modern accuracy of measurements allows the residual/peculiar (Galactocentric) velocity of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) in our Galaxy, Sgr A*, on the order of several kilo…

Segments of spiral arms of the Galaxy traced by classical Cepheids: Effects of age heterogeneity

Angelina V. Veselova, Igor' I. Nikiforov

We investigated the dependence of the parameters of the segments of spiral arms of the Galaxy on the age of classical Cepheids. The catalog of Cepheids (Mel'nik et al. 2015) was di…

Geometric Aspects and Testing of the Galactic Center Distance Determination from Spiral Arm Segments

I. I. Nikiforov, A. V. Veselova

We consider the problem of determining the geometric parameters of a Galactic spiral arm from its segment by including the distance to the spiral pole, i.e., the distance to the Ga…
