Detecting Triaxiality in the Galactic Dark Matter halo through Stellar Kinematics

Armando Rojas-Niño, Octavio Valenzuela, Barbara Pichardo +1

Assuming the dark matter halo of the Milky Way as a non-spherical potential (i.e. triaxial, prolate, oblate), we show how the assembling process of the Milky Way halo, may have lef…
