Charting galactic accelerations - II: How to ‘learn’ accelerations in the solar neighbourhood (2022)
Journal Article
Naik, A. P., An, J., Burrage, C., & Evans, N. W. (2022). Charting galactic accelerations - II: How to ‘learn’ accelerations in the solar neighbourhood. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 511(2), 1609-1621. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stac153

Gravitational acceleration fields can be deduced from the collisionless Boltzmann equation, once the distribution function is known. This can be constructed via the method of normalizing flows from data sets of the positions and velocities of stars....
