Stream Members Only: Data-driven Characterization of Stellar Streams with Mixture Density Networks

Stream Members Only: Data-driven Characterization of Stellar Streams with Mixture Density Networks

Stellar streams are sensitive probes of the Milky Way’s gravitational potential. The mean track of a stream constrains global properties of the potential, while its fine-grained surface density constrains galactic substructure. A precise characterization of streams from potentially noisy data marks...
