An Equilibrium Model of the Galaxy Determined by Element Abundance Gradients
We present a method to determine the gravitational potential of the Milky Way from measurements of the locations, velocities, and element abundances of stars in the Galactic disk. The method relies on the assumption that the Galaxy is axisymmetric and stationary and that element abundance ratios suc...
