Stellar mass-weighted orbital circularity distribution for the whole MW (black) and decomposed onto spheroid (red) and disc-like kinematics (blue). The spheroidal component is defined to be symmetric around zero circularity value; the remaining component is considered as the MW disc. The circularity distribution for high- and low-α populations are shown with dark red and purple colours, respectively.
