Galactic Cepheid Kinematics as a Probe of Large Scale Non-Axisymmetry of the Galaxy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 February 2018
Abstract
We investigate whether the currently available Galactic Cepheid kinematic data can put interesting constraints on large scale low amplitude non-axisymmetry of the Galactic plane rotation pattern. In this connection we address the experimental design problem of where in the Galactic plane additional Cepheids would prove the most useful for the axisymmetric and the non-axisymmetric modeling of the kinematics.
