Role of Gaseous Disk in the Formation of the Spiral Structure of the Milky Way Galaxy

We use observational gaseous and stellar density distributions in the disk of the Milky Way (MW) galaxy together with the disk rotation curve and measured disk velocity dispersion to build collisionless and combined collisionless-gaseous equilibrium models of the Milky Way disk. A purely collisionle...
