Galactic Accelerations from the GD-1 Stream Suggest a Tilted Dark Matter Halo
Cold dark matter halos are expected to be triaxial and often tilted relative to the stellar disk. Stellar streams provide a sensitive tracer of the Milky Way’s halo shape though models for the Galactic potential are typically limited to simple, symmetric functional forms. Here, we measure the Galact...
