Orbital decomposition of the MW bulge in face-on (top) and side-on (bottom) projections. The panels show the projected stellar density of orbits classified by their vertical-to-in-plane frequency ratio, fz/fx (see Fig. 4). The bar’s major axis is aligned along the X-axis in both projections. Each orbital class represents a distinct dynamical population, and the stellar mass associated with each class is indicated in the top left corner of the corresponding panels.
