The Shape and Mass of the Galactic Dark Matter Halo from the Axisymmetric Jeans Model

We explore the density profile, shape, and virial mass of the Milky Way’s dark matter halo, using K giants (KGs) from the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope and Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS)/SEGUE as well as blue horizontal branch stars (BHBs) from SDSS. Incorporating Gaia D...
